Hey,
I am sorry to hear that you did not get your desired score.
If the Universities are giving GRE waivers then you should go for it but that being said GRE score works as a booster when combined with our overall profile( LOR, Work ex, SOP, etc.)
I suggest you reach out to the current student of your desired college as the colleges might given out GRE waivers for the last term as well so you will get a clear picture.
If you are planning to retake, focus on quant as it is easy to score high on quant and go beyond 163+ than in verbal. Feel free to wander in this forum. We have everything you need to get the highest quant score. Check this out:
