I'm in a bit of a predicament with my GRE score.

I took the GRE in 2017, intending to use it to apply to humanities PhD programs. Law school wasn't on my radar then, nor had the law school GRE pile-on begun. Thinking that only my verbal scores would matter, I didn't bother studying for the quant. I scored a 170V and 158Q (69th percentile) and a 5.5AW.

In February 2018 I took the LSAT and got a 170.

My question is whether I should submit my GRE with middling quant score to law schools where submission is optional if you have an LSAT score. (Some schools require you submit the GRE no matter what if you took it in the last five years.) For example, if I apply to Harvard will they be more likely to see my 170V as a boon or my 158Q as a detriment?

Will the GRE even matter if I have a solid LSAT?
