While schools take the highest score, many of these schools can afford to be picky and a score like a 000 won't present you in the best light. In this hypothetical situation, we're looking at either a blank and 000 or a 000 and a 000. The former looks better.  Clearly, there's a difference of opinion, and the real test can be a valuable study tool. However, the test is really merely another preptest so you could get a similar measure of your performance from any other recent preptest. The question is really if the added value of knowing what you got offsets the cost of showing the lower score.  This is bad advice. This hypo is so unrealistic it is almost completely irrelevant. If you have a strong application and submit early, you could have a 000, 000, and 000, and top schools won't take other 000s "over" you. You aren't competing with other applicants in this way.  Canceling a score has no purpose, because schools ONLY care about the highest score (See MS0 thread and his website for supporting info) and you are depriving yourself of the random chance you did score well enough and also depriving yourself of your most significant practice test data if you plan on retaking anyways
