Hi Scott & Omari,
I took GMAT yesterday and got 650 (Q49 & V31) after preparing for 3 months (took Kaplan classroom too). My expectation was 700+. My practice tests and GMATClub.com's score estimator were estimating 720. I am not sure what went wrong, but did poorly in verbal than I expected. Should I take GMAT again?
