hello
i gave my gmat yesterday and got 550(this was my third attempt, first was in jan 2014-500 and second was oct 2014-550) really disappointed with my score and want to give it one last shot.
i have been getting mixed reviews as to retaking the gmat. some say it shows badly on the application while some say it shows perseverance and never say die attitude.
please suggest.

Hi Angel7278
Our tutors note that "retaking the GMAT is not usually negatively perceived by business schools. However, let’s qualify this. Taking the exam eight times and not improving can be perceived negatively, while taking the exam fewer times and improving your score sends a strong, positive message.
You will need to weigh your motivation, time availability and realistic assessment of how much you can improve. Study smartly, get the help you need and analyze yourself properly, and you give yourself the best possible chance to reach your target GMAT score."
Lastly, I suggest signing up for a course. This will help you develop a stronger approach to studying for the GMAT. You can sign up for a free trial for the Economist GMAT Tutor here and see if works for you: https://econgm.at/freetrialoffer.
