Thanks for all the responses! I have decided not to retake and will focus the extra time on the writing sample.

I apologize for another "Are My Scores Good Enough?" post, but here goes. Thanks to anyone who is willing to offer any advice. I recently scored 169V (99%), 156Q (64%), and 5.5A (98%). I was very disappointed with my quantitative, and am pretty sure I could improve it if I rewrote. It is likely that my verbal will drop at least slightly on a rewrite, however. Assuming I could still find a way to spend sufficient time on my writing sample and other important parts of my application, I am wondering if anyone thinks it would be worth it to go for a rewrite? I am not sure if this matters, but I am applying to programs strong in continental thought. Some top choices are Boston College, Boston U, DePaul, U Chicago, Stony Brook, and Penn State. Again, I am sorry if these sorts of questions annoy you. Feel free to express your disdain below. Thanks to anyone who replies.
