I gave my GMAT this Saturday, 30th July and scored 720(q49 v40).
In my gmatprep tests, I had consistently scored above 750. But on the test day, I was extremely unwell and I somehow gave the exam by popping some medicines. But I just couldn't concentrate during the exam.
Now my WE is only 1 year, and as per Alex's suggestion, I am not applying this year. So, while I gain some more WE, would it be worthwhile for me to retake the gmat and try to score above 750? But I'm not sure if it's necessary and I have heard, retaking too many times can actually go against you. I'm kind of confused and some insight would be helpful.

The thing is you have a pretty even split. I'm sure if you're confident that you can score a greater score and you really WANT to do it, you can. But the decision is entirely up to you. Your score is pretty good in itself.

Yeah I would also like to reiterate Whiplash's point.
If you really feel that you have scored lower than what you were scoring on your prep tests, then you can have one more go at it.
On the contrary, you can put more effort into making your applications look good
