Crazy to Retake a 720 GMAT?
I took the GMAT recently and scored a 720 (Q48, V40) and am now considering retaking to get a 740+. For background, I am an an American male and will have 2 years in banking and 3 years in PE upon matriculation (applying next fall).
I think that the rest of my profile (EC's, recs, etc) will be fine, but my primary concern is my GMAT. I am only interested in applying to H/S/W, Booth, Columbia, and Kellogg, where the avg scores have risen considerably over the past few years. Is it a wise investment of time to try to retake the GMAT and crack 740+?
It only took me ~25 hours of study time to go from 730-760. Probably worth it if you haven't put in a ton of time studying already. The Manhattan books were very good.
On top of what has been said before, you definitely have time to retake it. It would have been quite different if you only had 2-3 weeks.
