Hello,
I just took my GMAT for the first time yesterday and did much worse than I expected. I scored a 610 (37-V, 36-Q, 3-IR). My quant score and IR score are especially worrisome (26 percentile and 19 percentile respectively). I am planning to retake the test within a month and my goal score is a 700+. I am wondering if I should cancel my current score so there is no record of it (frankly, I am embarrassed by it). Does it look better to admissions counselors to see that I was able to significantly improve my score over the course of a month or would it be best to erase all evidence this ever happened? I may take the GMAT two more times, so in my opinion it looks really bad if I have 3 scores and one is this low, even if I do make progress in the future. Additionally, if I cancel now, I can always go back and reinstate it later if I think it will be to my advantage. What do you think, should I cancel my 610? Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks,
-Clay-

Hi Clay713,
Thank you for your post. Please disregard any previous replies you received here, as they did not come from anyone from Avanti Prep. I also happen to disagree with the random response that was previously provided here, which I have deleted to avoid any misinterpretation that it came from Avanti Prep.
While showing improvement over time can be nice, if you plan to retake the exam at least a couple more times and think that you will ultimately score in the 700s, I would cancel the current score if you still can. Those percentiles are quite low to your point, and if you think that you will be operating on a substantially different level in the future, I would get rid of this score. (This answer would be different for someone who thought they might max out at a 630, but given the facts you've offered, I would cancel the score.)
Please feel free to sign up for a Free Consultation if we can ever be of more formal assistance to you (which, if you are planning to take the GMAT a couple more times, I assume would be next year?) We wish you the best of luck until then!
Kind Regards,
Greg
