There have been a lot of threads from people who did well in the science/math sections, but sucked in verbal. I'm the opposite..sort of.

I got a 94 composite, b/c my verbal/reading scores were both 99. My math/bio/chem were all mid 70s. Does this look bad?....and will schools treat it as lower than a 94 since my science sections werent that great?

I already signed up for the august test, so I guess I'll just re-take anyway...but I dont wanna risk screwing up a 94 composite! lol
 
anyone have any input? Now I'm considering not re-taking it b/c the test site is 2hours away and It's just such a hassle!

My gpa is on the low side (3.1ish), so I know I need to make up for it in other areas, but would re-taking the pcat really help? These are my exact scores

Verbal 99
Bio 75
Quant 73
Readin 99
Chem 72
Comp 94

What do you guys think???
