uneven GMAT

Any thoughts on the relative importance of having close percentages on the GMAT?

49Q/37V gives a 700, but the verbal is 81 percentile, while the quant. is closer to max.

Considering an undergrad in engineering, do schools in the M7 look at heavy math u-grad & much higher Qant. as a relatively weaker/lopsided application or am I reading too much into this?

I've never seen anything where schools were concerned about verbal for an MBA (except nonnative speakers) as much as they worry about students being able to handle the math/statistics.

I may just be becoming neurotic. I'd rather not try the test again, but I might if I thought that a low verbal was a big hit.
