3.65/175 Chances? Retake?

Does anyone have any thoughts on my chances? Is my GPA too low for HYS? I have a few years of strong work experience and went to a top undergrad, but I'm not sure how much of a difference that'll make.

Also, I'm not sure if I'm going crazy, but is there any situation where a retake would be worthwhile? My practice tests were averaging a few points higher (in the 177-178 range). I'm a bit concerned about the recent increase in high scorers.

Thank you!!

Probably out at YS, unless you have some outstanding softs. As per MyLSN, about a 1 in 3 chance at H. Great chance at acceptance/money at anywhere below T-3, excepting maybe Chicago, if you write "Why X" essays for Penn, Michigan, etc. I don't think there's TOO much of a point in retaking.
