OAT over and over again

I was wondering if taking the OATs three times or more is frowned upon from schools? I would think that it would be, but would it be a good tradeoff if you got a high score in the end? So far i've taken it twice, and got a TS of 330 both times. I'm not really satisfied with the score, but I don't want to jeopardize my chances of getting into school.

Call the schools you're interested in and see if you should bother. If you have a really good GPA, they might tell you it won't make any difference.

That's what happened to me...I know I could have done better on my OAT b/c I didn't really prepare the first time. But my GPA was really good, so all the advising people told me to save my time and my $100.

4eyes: If you don't mind what was your GPA (including science)
and your OAT??

OAT 1st try: 320 (I mentioned in another thread...winging it is not recommended....)
Overall GPA: 3.89 something
I honestly can't remember my science GPA...I'd guess 3.8ish?
