Analyzing MGMAT CR Cat

Hi! I am trying to analyze my MGMAT cat for Cr and Sc. I only answered 36% correct for CR but the average question I got correct was a 690. I scored at 60% in SC but the average answer right was 570.

Practice Test 520..how to get to a solid 600

I just took my first practice test (MGMAT) and received a 520 33Q and 28V (note: I did not do Essay/IR). Is it possible to get to a solid 600 by the middle of July? My initial plan was to go through MGMAT Foundations of Quant, some of Kaplan Quant, and then go through the RC and SC book of the MGMAT...

Hi! Thanks for your reply. 1) I took the first without studying because I didn't think it would be as challenging. The 2nd one I went through the MGMAT Quant books, and took one MGMAT CAT 3 weeks before real test and scored a 530 (35Q, 29V). I stopped studying as much because the masters program I a...

GMAT Strategy: Scheduling 2 exams back to back?

Hi! I have struggled with the GMAT for awhile now. The first 2 times I did not study, so my scores of 420 and 460 were no surprise. I studied hard for the 3rd one (although I am in school so this was probably not wise, studying for 3 hard classes on top of the GMAT), even enrolled in MGMAT 8 week co...

1) I enrolled in a MGMAT prep course back in August, so I have been studying since August. I took the 440 GMAT 10/29. I just wasn't sure why my MGMAT practice tests are between 540-580 and the GMAT Prep and Real GMAT are that far below those scores. Are the algorithms that different between MGMAT an...

Getting score from a miserable 420 to 550 in 11 weeks!!

I just took my first GMAT and got a horrific score of 420 (30 percentile in verbal and a measly 14 percentile in quant) . I only casually studied for 3 weeks, got a 520 on the practice and stopped studying for 2 weeks ( NOT smart on my part, I know.) So now, I am extremely motivated to study hardcor...
