Folks,
I was planning to appear for GMAT next week but I am short of complete preparation. I am targetting 700+ score and right now I am at Q45, V3) ~620 percentile. I understand that I have to pull verbal to 42 and anything above 45 in maths is bonus.
Coming to question. Since I have paid for the examination I would like to appear for the test and have a overall feel and then I would like to cancel the score. If I cancel the score, would admission committees of B-school be able to look at the score or would they know that I appeared in the examination?
In Gmat Prep they in the end that though you will not receive official score but when you take the test next time, it will be shown that you had appeared.
Also anything specific to earn those elusive 12 points. Also approximately how many more correct answers in verbal will take me to the score of 42 ( Right now I am at 30, do not go back or front
Please advise.

Nobody would know your score in this case but I would recommend not canceling it but instead giving it your best shot. Getting a 620 and then a 700 is not a bad idea at all. Getting a cancel is not bad either but why waste $250? It does not matter a whole lot if you have multiple scores. Many people do and it is a reasonable explanation - wanted to get a higher score and felt the first one was not up to my expectations...

I agree with bb. I have read on many sites that b-schools don't care much about how many times you have taken the exam. Also, I think that taking the exam and gaining a real test day experience would be very valuable to you in preparation for your next GMAT testing (which you might not even have to do if you actually ended up reaching your goal on your first try!)
