Hey Guys,
Need a bit of advice!
I've taken the GMAT thrice, with the following scores :
630 (Q:47,V:28,IR:8)
690 (Q:49,V:34,IR:7)
740 (Q:49,V:41,IR:6)
My undergrad CGPA is 7.54 out 10. Not too great, but what's worse is that the Math grades in my transcripts are D and E
I want to prove that I'm not a complete idiot in math (I'm not
my current job involves a lot of complex math!)
Would you guys recommend that I take the GMAT again to showcase my Quant skills.
During my prep earlier, I focused almost exclusively on Verbal and never properly practiced Quant. I think with proper work I can improve my Quant score to 50-51.
Please suggest!
Thanks!

51 would be a great score, but to be honest, I don't think it will create a lot of difference. You can very well prove yourself in the interviews and explain the panel about the debacle in the Maths subject specifically in college. Plus college level maths is no where close to GMAT maths. Higher GMAT quant score would mean your basics are strong but will not cover you D & E at college. Rest the decision lies in your lap. Congrats for 740 and all the best!

Hi,
I think you have achieved an outstanding GMAT score and I don't see much point in retaking. What if you are not able to repeat your performance another time and land up getting lesser than 740? (composite score is very important).
I'd suggest that you do Math/ statistic specific courses - try MBAmath.com or extension programs(UCLA/ Berkeley etc.). These courses will help you address specific weaknesses and also help you build an alternate transcript. Moreover, you must make a note of strong quant skills as demonstrated in your job, when you write your application.
