Hello. I plan to apply to top 20 schools. Today I sat for the exam and scored 710 (Q47, V41). Overall I'm happy with my total score, but no so much with my Quant score, which is 65 percentile. I believe I could do much better next time. But I'm not sure if it is worth to study and take it again. And the deadlines for Round 2 are approaching soon. Can I apply now and then submit the new score later?

Hi taliyev,
First off, a 710/Q47 is an outstanding score (it's right around the 90th percentile overall), so you should apply to any Business Schools that interest you. As such, a retest is likely not necessary. Depending on the Schools that you plan to apply to, you would likely find it beneficial to speak with an Admissions Expert about your overall profile. There's a Forum full of them here:

Business Schools tend to be 'open' to applicants updating their applications with new information (a higher GMAT score, a significant promotion at Work, receiving an award, etc.), so if you were to retake the GMAT and score significantly higher, then you would probably be fine with sending in that newer score (even if you had already sent in your application).

Thanks very much for your response. But I can take the exam only after a month, wouldn't the school already make a decision about my application by that time?
