Should I retake the GMAT?
I took the GMAT today, 680, but it was 41 V, 41Q, the Verbal is great but the quant sucked, should I go ahead and retake it?

Yes. The quant side is beatable, so why not beat it?
I've got a fucking mechanical engineering degree and managed a 42 on the quant side -- ugh. The split completely ruined my 740 overall score.
Anyone ever try GMATPill? I've got the Manhattan books but was thinking about trying something different.
Sounds like you had one mother of a bad day. That or you're too uber for GMAT math, which I suppose could theoretically happen. Get back on the horse that threw you and correct your shit before you riggedy-wreck your shit.
I was surprised by this I had been usually hitting about 43-45, the only reason I ask is I'm applying for Masters in Management and it seems like it would be competitive enough for Duke/WFU/UVA.
What's your demographic? Target schools? If you're a white/asian male in finance/consulting going for MBA business schools ">M7 schools, then you need to get a quant raw score of at least 49 and a total score of 760+ to feel safe.
He's applying for an MMS degree, not an MBA. It's not as competiive. A friend of mine (Asian male) got into Duke with a 650 GMAT. If your gpa is close to their average, I think you're covered on those two aspects of the application.
Hispanic and doing a masters in management or finance, target schools are Wake Forest (Corporate Fellowship), Duke MMS, UVA Masters in Commerce, Villanova, Vanderbilt, IE, ESADE, UT-Austin and perhaps Tulane or Florida.
hahahaha this is funny.
Your Q/V split is awkward even though your overall score is good...I'd retake for a better split. You are definitely competitive with a 680, but if you do get rejected I wouldn't GMAT doubts to be the deciding issue. Just re-take and fix your split.
Thanks BepBep12 I SB'd you
