HI Jen,
Thank you very much for your response. I completely agree that I might have to retake it. I am just concerned because I do not want to waste time on GMAT and not have enough time for my essays. What strategies would you recommend to tackle the GMAT in a timely manner? I think if I get 680-700 I will be very happy so I am looking for +50. From the exam my main issue was timing - I didn`t have time for last 3 questions on quant and had to rush through verbal and randomly pick bunch of last SCs. Thanks!
