    Regarding GRE Retake ( frist attempt =1320 )

    Guys! I scored 1320 in the first attempt and
    I am planning to retake the GRE to improve my quantitative score.
    I have a query ( that I can't get answered at the ETS site ) esp. to those who have retaken the GRE ( at least once )

    #Do I get the same Confirmation number the second time I register?
    # Where exactly do I have to mention the Confirmation ID of my first appearance, while registering for the second time ?? ( Or I don't mention it at all, rather ETS tracks it from my Passport ID and name?)

    Please help me answering these queries. I have already reported my scores to the universities. But I want them to know my cumulative score. So, the univs are gonna have two mails in their mail-Box from ETS.

    >> Mail1 ( Score of my first appearance [1320])
    >> Mail2 ( Cumulative score = 1st[1320] + 2nd[????] )

    How do I make sure,that the graduate selection-committee picks Mail2 and NOT 1 ??

    Ohh !! It's 580v + 740q
    I'm retaking it mainly to improve the quant. score ( Hope it doesn't get worse)
    In fact, I could answer 26 questions and ran out of time !!
    This time I would try hitting all 28 questions. If I can't , I would postpone the test and stick to my previous score.

    I wish I didn't have to retake it .
    But after investigating the average quant. score of last-year-admits into my target schools I realized that "not-retaking" would cause my application to be filtered out long before my SOP reaches the Professor's hands.....

    Anyways !! No one seems to have an answer to my Mail1-Mail2 puzzle

    I guess the GRE quant level has raised recently so don't go by your quant score instead check on the percentile. What is your percentile in quant?

    I too gave my GRE a couple of days ago which resulted in Q-730 V-590. I too am upset with my quant, mainly lost on timeout and a couple of tricky questions in the beginning but waiting to know my percentile.
