    My 2 cents:

    If you already qualify for what you want then don't take it again. If some reason you score lower then you are stuck with the lower score. You have nothing to gain by taking it again and may end up losing the job you want. Why chance it, you have nothing to prove.

    If later on, once you get in, you need a higher score for something then by all means retake it. But until then, I wouldn't.

    I would be surprised if your recruiter would even allow you to retake it once you qualified. He/she knows the deal.
