I am pretty sure that Yale and Tuck look at the best disaggregated scores. Based on the non-scientific but logical essay advice piece posted by Rhyme and written by someone who either served on a top ten adCom (or is at least initmately familiar with the process), taking it more than twice starts to hurt the credibility of your best score.
https://www.gmatclub.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=39233

That being said, I took it twice and my best quant was 46 and my best verbal 45. For **** and giggles, what is my modified "total"? 720? 730?

Has anyone gotten a 46Q45V?


Correct, Yale and Tuck are willing to evaluate applicants based on their highest individual subsector scores; however, they will not recalculate total score based on the highest subsectors.

Also, I believe the general consensus is that ad comms begin to have concerns if applicants take the GMAT more than three times. If you take it three times or less, IMO you are fine.

Well done! If you keep trying after a 700 and a 710 they will be concerned about your judgement. Just leave it alone!

Hope it helps. L.

Someone asked about a way to calculate the total score of V & Q scores from separate exams. Somewhere in here Hjort has a little formula that works. Don't know where it is, but it worked for me.
