Retake 770 GMAT with 4 in AWA?

Recently took my GMAT to apply for finance masters programmes at Oxford, LBS, LSE and HEC. When I got the 770 (Q 49 V 49) I was quite happy, but felt bad seeing that I only got a 4.0 in the AWA.

My question is: would any of these programmes care about my AWA score?

Only Oxford mentions that applicants should aim for a 5 in AWA, but also that it is not a strict limit. If this would kill my application than maybe I would consider retaking the test, but you can see why I am hesitant to do this. Anybody with some insights? Thanks!

 

For 4 months low key, then 2 months bit more intensive. If you studied for 4 months then should be enough imo, but depends on your target as well.
