I am an undergrad and recently scored 750 on the gmat and 6.0 on the AWA. Does this guarantee me entrance to Harvard or Stanford in two years, or should I take it again? |

You'd be crazy to take it again with a 750. You've more than passed the GMAT "hurdle" and now you need to focus on the other things that tend to be more important: work experience, extras, leadership. The top schools *regularly* reject people with 750 and above so they obviously look for more than that. I'm sure that if Harvard or Stanford wanted an average GMAT of 760, they could easily accomplish that with their applicant pools but getting in is much more than just the score.
