So, I appeared for GRE on 16th December and scored 320 with captioned splits. It was my first attempt with 1 week of preparation as the deadlines for my preferred programs i.e. MBA is in 1st week of January. Although I was gunning for anything north of 324, I fell short by 4 points and I don't see that if I retake i.e. after 21 days, I'd be able to meet the deadlines. Shall I go with the above score? Applying to Rice, Kelley, Owen, WashU, Cornell, Emory, UNC, Foster.
Is it a wise decision to work on application rather going for retake?

Hey Abhinay,
320 is really a nice score and in a week - WOW! Having said that, you are targeting R2, which is a very competitive round.
For Kelley, I can say that they got 140% more apps for R1. I applied for the same as well but got dinged. And as you said that retake will not be possible because of the deadlines, there is no harm in applying. I have seen one with less than my score in Foster while I got WL.
Also, it will also depend on your profile and the stories you tell. The school also thinks this way: Will we be able to place this applicant based on his goals? I think WashU, Owen, Rice will be great. Go for them.
Feel free to ask any other questions.
Regards,
R
