Hi everyone, I am an applicant from an over-represented pool and believe a high GMAT score is crucial for my profile.
Last year, I scored a 715 on GMAT Focus [Nov2024: 715(99th), with Q90(100th) | V84(89th) | DI83(95th)], and already sent it to some M7 schools.
This year, hoping to strengthen my applicantions, I retook the exam twice recently. While I was scoring 745 in offical mocks several times, my actual scores in these two attempts are in a simiar range to my last year's attempt:
Oct2025: 705(98th), with Q89(97th) | V82(74th) | DI84(97th) - Though without a perfect 100th, a 97th Quant score may still demonstrate my strong math level.
Nov2025: 715(99th), with Q86(91st) | V88(99th) | DI83(95th) - I think a 99th Verbal score is quite valuable for me, since I am not a native English speaker.
So would it be meaningful for me to send these two new scores to b-schools that received my original 715 last year already. Or it would be better to only send a higher overall score (but I don't think it is likely for me to allocate enough time to retake for a 725+ score within this year's MBA application cycle).
Thanks!

Hi xqh,
In our opinion, if you have already sent the 715 score to some schools last year, you need not share the 715 score again. A higher overall score works better so both scores do not need to be sent.
All the best!

Hi. I don't think you need to send the new score. Schools don't really pay too much attention to the sectional scores unless they are really unbalanced (but that's almost impossible with a 715).
Congratulations on your amazing score! 💪💪💪
P.S. Sorry about the up and down of the QV and DI.
