Most schools will only look at your highest score these days. Please note that this is from anecdotal evidence, and all T-14 scores claim to look at all scores.
It really depends how much you want NYU v. being happy with, say, P/V/M/B. With your stats should get into P/V/M/B, (at least one of them), but its highly unlikely you will get into NYU. If you desperately want NYU, I would say study hard till June and re-take.
Best of luck!

If you really get down on yourself after one below average PT than good luck with anything in life... seriously. Are you gonna pout or are you gonna get off your fucking ass and realize what you did wrong and adjust accordingly? Come on now, its just one PT. Look, you got -4 on LG, that's not acceptable if you want a 170+. That alone shows me that you need some more work on LG. Now go work on some shit, don't come back until you realize how foolish this thread is!

Wow. For what its worth I agree that one test cant be indicative of your overall ability but it does show you where you need to work. I don't think it was unreasonable to ask haha. Good luck with the studying nyremy!

Hey, he needed a little slap back to sanity. I understand this test can make you get down on yourself but in the end that's only going to hurt you, so why not just skip the self-loathing and get back to work and make sure that it doesn't happen again.
