hi
I think 1140 for cs is a bit less than required because as far as I know MS in CS is one of the most difficult admissions.So its better to write the GRE once again if you are desperate to go there.
Wish you good luck.

Check the average GRE scores of the programs you are applying to. Computer science at MIT requires very different scores from computer science at Noname University. Your scores should be in the range of the schools you want to attend, though preferably at the above average.

As far as retaking the test, only do it if either:
1. You didn't prepare very well. (at least 4 weeks, 10 hrs/week)
2. You are willing to spend a lot of time preparing (8-12+ weeks, 10 hrs/week)
