Thanks for the encouraging words, mj. My background is an intel analyst for the Air Force. My job was heavily language focused, but I've always felt comfortable with math. My Quant score was a lot lower than I expected. I've already ordered the MGMAT OG companion and I'm going to plow through that f...

Take 1 = 650 |Lessons Learned + Need Advice for 1 month prep
Hi everyone, I finally took the GMAT today after a few months prep and scored a 650. It was bittersweet because I hoped for a score above 700, but 650 was in line (but on the low side) with my GMAT Prep scores. My breakdown was Q40(56%) and V39(87%) 650(79%). I am going to retake in six weeks, so I ...

Brian,
If they really are primarily testing higher-order thinking, then everything makes sense except Sentence Correction. Why do they put this evil section in the GMAT? I can't find a way to reason to the answer in SC!

Mock tests are not great tools for learning the material. You need books like MGMAT's for that. As for RC, I've used Veritas' and it's very effective
