Should I send both GRE scores if they are close to each other?

I taken the GRE 2 times. First I got V 140, Q 147, AW 3.5. Second time everything stayed the same except Q went up to 148. Even though it took me up 3 percentiles, should I send them again? Or is it a waste of money and time.

Also should I just send the second group of scores and not from the first GRE. Or do schools like to see that you've taken it more than once.
 
Hi there! I would just send your second set of scores. I don't think there's a point in spending twice the money to send out a score that's lower. Even tho it is a 3 point difference, it doesn't show that you REALLY significantly improved your score. And that was the case, I'd still only send my highest score! Good luck on applications 🙂
