Hi guys ,
I got a 740(q50, v40) in my latest attempt in the gmat ,

My previous attempts were 660, 680 , 650 ,

I don't think the admissions committe will look down on it. I'm not familiar with Oxford's admissions people, but most committee people tell us that their process re GMAT scores is something like this:

- accept people based on their own, self-reported GMAT score
- have an intern/fellow check the score to make sure it is accurate

You might want to check with the committee's particular rules (on their website; don't bother them with a specific email/call about this) as to high scores, etc., but use the above as a general guide.
