Hi guys
Im sitting my GMAT for the 2nd time in <12 hours.
did a few gmat prep tests and been hovering around the same score which laughably is exactly the same score as i got in my first attempt 660.
my question say i take the test tomorrow and get below a 700 (so anywhere between 650-690) is it worth cancelling my score?
If I dont get a 700 the schools that I will be applying to don't really change in terms of tiers and i doubt they would care too much about a 660gmat score v 680gmat score
I guess what im asking is - whether the school will look at my profile and laugh at me seeing i have had a 20 point increase in 2 attempts or whether 680 and 660 does make a difference in terms of applying to schools?
I read all these posts here about people doing 200 points between two attempts so im feeling kind of inadequate atm.

Hi absauce,
For practical purposes, Business Schools don't care if you retake the GMAT, so they won't "laugh at you" if you score similarly on your second attempt at the GMAT. At face value, a 660 and a 680 are essentially the same score, UNLESS the Scaled Scores are significantly different. Under certain circumstances, a lower overall score combined with a specific higher Scaled Score can be beneficial. You're ultimately asking Admissions questions, so you would likely find it beneficial to speak with an Admissions Expert about your overall profile. There's a Forum full of them here:
