Strategy for next 9 weeks

Hello, I'm scheduled to take the GMAT on October 2nd, and I would love some feedback on my study strategy. I started studying at the beginning of June, using Knewton's online program and focusing on quant. On July 7th I took the GMATPrep test and scored 690 (Q40, V44). Then, work became insane and I...

Re: Strategy for next 9 weeks

Hi Stacey, I thought I'd check in, give an update on my progress, and ask a few questions. I took a MGMAT CAT 2 weeks ago and scored 690 (Q44, V39). So, since my last GMAT Prep test, my quant score has gone from 40 to 44. I'm very excited about that. Verbal has fluctuated, but I'm not very concerned...

How to get a super high verbal score

I'm looking to get a very strong GMAT score to help mitigate a low undergrad GPA and to possibly qualify for a scholarship. I've been primarily focusing on quant, since verbal has always been my strongest area. However, now that my official exam is rapidly approaching, I'd like to maximize my verbal...

730 on MGMAT, 650 on official exam

After 4 months of studying, I took the official exam yesterday and am feeling pretty disappointed. I scored 650 (Q37, V42). On both of my last two practice tests (GMATPrep and MGMAT), I scored 45 on quant. All tests were taken under official-like conditions, including completing the essay and IR. I'...

Re: 730 on MGMAT, 650 on official exam

Thanks, Stacey. Results of my most recent practice test, taken one week before my official exam: Score: 730 (Q45, V45, IR 4.57) I completed the essay and didn’t do anything that wouldn’t be allowed under official testing guidelines. The below analysis is focused on the quant section, because that’s ...

Re: GMAT PREP

Unfortunately, once you close the window you can't review the exam. For future reference, try taking screenshots of your questions before closing.

Why didn't my MGMAT test adapt more?

Yesterday, I scored 45 on the quant portion of an MGMAT practice test. I mismanaged my time and had to rush on questions 30-37. In turn, I got every one of those questions wrong. However, questions 13-36 were all 700-800 level. Question 37 finally dropped down to 600-700. Given I had a string of 8 q...

Re: Why didn't my MGMAT test adapt more?

Thanks, Stacey. I've been trying to improve my timing for awhile now, but somehow I really mismanaged it during this test. I think one of my biggest issues is that I haven't developed a "1-minute sense." I've been using benchmarks, and I am comfortable with guessing on questions that are t...

Strategy for Next 3 Weeks

I just booked my test date for 2/26, that's 22 days from now. I first took the official exam in October and wasn't happy with my score. I planned to retake in December, but I kept delaying the test. Finally, I decided to book a date to force myself to feel more pressure. My verbal score is strong, s...

Re: Strategy for Next 3 Weeks

So, I hit an official score of 710, which was my target. However, my score is completely imbalanced, and not in line with my practice test results. I scored 710 (Q39, V48). I'm obviously happy with my verbal score, but I don't understand why my official quant score is so different than my quant scor...
