What’s the difference between a 750, 760 and 770. I just took for first time and got 750. I’m confident I can bump it up. Is it worth retaking or is there no measurable advantages of 10 extra pts

I have my table of avg GMAT and all.. but for a 25 year old white male in big4 from a big 10 school with a 3.5 GPA. How high of a score do I need for INSEAD/LBS/M7? Background feels just a bit generic
