Here is another thread that has been started in 2004 - may still be relevant.

thanks for that info.

yea, no point in contesting my score over 10 points once i'm already at 700.

the best thing would be to retake and get that 750!

but, the GMAT isn't everything and i'm very pleased with my 700.

essays are going to make or break me at this point...

I agree - your essays will make the difference now. 700 or 720 probably does not make much difference, getting above 750 is nice and may be helpful. However, different schools have different policies and rules - some worship GMAT whereas others consider it as a bare minimum for applicants.
