GRE 308, low GPA 3.4

I took my GRE today and unfortunately scored 157 quant and 151 verbal. Although I know that 308 isn’t terrible, I hoped to score enough to undermine my GPA, which is 3.4 for both cumulative and science. As for the other parts of my application, I have ~3000-3500 PCE. I know it is still early in the PA cycle, but I wanted to submit my applications as soon as possible for the best chance, since I do have a below average GPA. I am thinking of retaking the GRE in 3-4 weeks, because I do think my anxiety and time management caused me to underperform, but I’m not sure whether to submit applications now and update my scores later or if this would risk me being rejected before I have the chance to retake and if I should just wait until I have my new scores. I am in Florida and although I’d love to stay in my home state, I have accepted that I have to open myself to out of state schools because I am not a competitive applicant for a lot of schools here. I’d appreciate any advice I can get, thank you all.
