Not much but if you get a terrible one, it is not sitting there so it is mostly psychological. Some people also believe that if the Adcom sees you have a 750 but then they see a 550 on the report too then somehow it will cast a doubt on your 750 (it won't) but people believe that and so to have a peace of mind, GMAC offers them an option to cancel the score... and then makes money when they want to reinstate it. It is a win-win :lol:

Hi pamelaahelmerr,

You first see your score and then you can decide whether to keep or cancel it. Keep in mind that even if you keep your score at the test center, you still have a 72-hour window in which you can still cancel it. Here is an article with some more information:
