Hi everyone,

I took the standard GMAT twice and received the following scores:

Test 1: 730 47Q 42V 7IR 4AWA
Test 2: 720 49Q 40V 7IR 5AWA

I am confused on which scores to submit. Would the higher score or higher quant be better for applications? For reference, I plan on applying to Texas, USC, UNC, and Michigan.

Any advice is appreciated!
Hi nikhilvr1,

It's almost always better to go with the higher total score.

Also, congrats on the excellent score, and all the best for the applications.

Hi nikhilvr1,

I would submit the higher of your two scores.
