That's positive and at the same time not exactly the right perspective.mbsingh wrote:I am not trying to sound overconfident but i am aiming for a really high score and have made the mindset that i know nothing and have to start from scratch.
The GMAT is not a math test that tests your knowledge of math or a language test the purpose of which is to test you grammar skills. The GMAT is a test of vision and decision making skills. So the vision and decision making skills that you already have are key to scoring high.
In fact, had you taken a different attitude and truly sought to get right answers when you took that practice test, likely you would have scored much higher. Attitude is a huge component of GMAT performance. With a certain attitude you would have used the vision and the math, language and decision making skills that you already have to hack your way to right answers to the questions, and really, that certain attitude is, more than any strategies or tactics, what you need in order to score "really high" as you say you want to.
Whatever resources and whatever program you decide to use, remember that what you are doing is training to play a reasoning game. So while you can and will get insights and ideas from the resources, what's even more important is training yourself to see what's going on and make good decisions on the fly.
