Hi!
First of all, congrats - 720 is a very good score!
If you were to get a score of Q:51 and V: 39, I'd estimate your overall score to be 740. I don't think it's a very wise to take the test again for a 20 point increment.

However, if you set your sights a little higher (Q:51 and V: 42), you're likely to score a 760! Now, that can make a real difference :)

If you're confident about hitting the 42 mark, I say go for it!

:beer: Good Luck!

In case you're going for a re-take, I suggest you take it 30 to 45 days from now and work on your verbal while you're still in touch with the quant concepts :-D

Hi timeishere.

First of all congrats for the amazing score.
Secondly, if you really feel that you can hit a 40+ in verbal then I would suggest you to have a one more shot at it. That would take your score to 740 or 750.

Thirdly, GMAT have announced a standard deviation of +/- 30 points. So that means if you go and score 750 then it is as good as 720. So I would suggest you to put more effort in apps and make them stand apart. And apps normally take a lot of time. You really need to dig in for them.

Finally it's your call but take a very wise call here.

i guess you would have no problems to retake the test and get 740+ but it takes time for the another preparation..do you have the time, lets sy 3-4 weeks?
