I got 460 in my preliminary score on the GMAT, should i take the test again or should i send this score?

460 is quite low; however, there are schools that would accept it. Check with your chosen schools to see how close you are to the median. If these scores are below the median for your schools, you'll need to improve your scores. Invest in a preparation course and get the scores you want. \ngood luck

I  would  go  with this  attitude. Hey, it  is  only  $24.  It  will  give  you    exposure to  it  and  if  you  do  not pass  you   can  try  in the  next  go  round and  have the  time  to study  more.  It  would  guage  how  much, or  what areas  you  need  to study .\n\nAlso, you  never  know,  you  may  get  through the  first  time\n\nGo   For  It  and  use  positive thinking--also relax. I am a university Lecturer and  test  anxiety  is a real   problem.

Take it again, it doesn't matter that you failed twice I failed twice also and passed on the third attempt.... Third time luck so they say... I knew I'd fail the first one as I took it early after about 4 lesson on purpose as I'm not very confident in exams or tests I get very nervous....\n\nOn the second attempt I failed due to the instructor being a very stricked instructor and a very dificult examiner.... \n\nOn the third attempt I thought I'd failed as I made an error early and then relaxed because I thought I'd failed and when I got back I answered the questions and he told me I'd passed.... \n\nSo you never know.... I took mine in the UK so as far as I'm concerned it doesn't matter where you take your test or how many times you take it as long as you learn by the last mistake of where you went wrong then it'll help towards your next attempt....\n\nFingers crossed you'll get through the next one.... Good luck....

I took the ACT just last test date on Feb 11...I was advised by many people (and the test people themselves) not to use that option of free score reports. They said that you can always send your scores anywhere you want AFTER you know what score you got. Their reasoning was: "Why would you want to send someone a score, when you don't even know if it's actually a GOOD score?" As for sending it to the VP, etc...I haven't a clue why those people would care...

You have a chance.  Firstly- experience in taking the test will give you an edge next time- so you should do better.\n\nYou can also study the areas that you feel weak, and take a lot of sample tests.  It was years ago- but I was able to raise my score 160 points by taking the test 3 times and taking a course.

GMAT is for Graduate Business schools. If you are coming out of high school they want to see SAT test scores to be admitted to an undergraduate degree program.

You can revise, there are many websites that will help you get used to the types of questions. It is not a bad idea to spend at least a little time getting comfortable with the test. Who knows maybe you will be able to identify where you have any weakness and can just improve that. It is your score, and if you don't care, no one can make you. After all you had 16-18 year of learning to prepare.\nGet good sleep that week, eat a good meal before you go.

RELAX, don't study, it's a waste of time, review a Barrons GMAT book a few weeks in advance if you must, but don't stress it.\n\ntake a few exams from the study book, just to see how the style of the test is, so you won't be up for any suprises\n\nbut really, relax, you obviously aren't relaxed because you can't ace gmats ;) but you can get a perfect score!\n\nGood luck!

It has to do with weighting. Each time you take a test and get the same score, that score carries more weight than if you just got it one time.\n\nSo, getting 77, 5 times means you really have to get good scores next time to raise the average, versus getting a 77 once out of 10 times.\n\nBut the problem is easy because you weight the 77's 5 times and you weight the other scores 5 times. So both scores are given equal weights.  \n\nSo for every 77 you need a corresponding score of _____ to average out to 84.\n\nThe problem would be tougher if it said you could only take the test 3 more times or 6 more times... but since it's 5, each of the 77s can be balanced out by another score.

Just review your lesson and do your best in the exam.. If the score is already nearer on your goal strive harder next time and maybe that time youlll do it... ^_^

I think on it's own now, your scores are already quite excellent. However, considering the fact that you are POSITIVE you will get a higher math score, perhaps it would be worthwhile to spend another four hours to push your score up even higher. Will you be able to achieve perfect scores in your Critical Reading and Writing section again? If not, just stick with your score now.\n\nI'm wondering whether the colleges you're applying to only take the highest scores, or if they only look at the most recent test score. \n\nPerhaps you should explain in your application that your intended major is journalism, and not math-related.

I actually disagree - I think that the computer test is harder since you can't skip questions or review questions that you have already answered. While I didn't take the GRE, I did take the GMAT on the computer. I practiced a lot (with a test prep course) on the computer to make sure I was used to it. I also know that the computer version is given almost every business day throughout the US. The paper one is not.

I guess it depends on the state you live in.  If you're talking about the ParaPro Assessment(like here in Oregon), you have to take it again once more to see if your score is higher than the minimum allowed score.  We had one woman in the district who didn't pass the test twice.  She was let go.

OK - you got a number of options and I'm studying for it as well so this is what I'm doing. \n\nI bought my Kaplan book, if you haven't - that's your first step right there. GMAT is a test that is TIMED and each question is worth a DIFFERENT amount - unlike the SAT/LSAT/GRE ... That said - the best way to study is to first practice taking a lot GMAT'S just like you did when you were studying for the SAT's. After you take the GMAT a lot of times, if you still don't have confidence - take a class. I suggest either Princeton Review or Test Masters. If you're on the east coast then Princeton Review or Kaplan. \n\nPractice the GMAT. The math isn't hard and the verbal is like SAT reading. Not too hard if you read a lot.
