710 after 2.5 months

by slimsohn » Sun Mar 18, 2007 11:56 pm
I just wanted to thank the creators/moderators of this forum. I took the GMAT on March 16th and got an unofficial score of 710 (49 Quant, 36 Verbal). I achieved my goal of breaking 700, but was a little dissapointed because some practice tests had inflated my expectation. On the MGMAT practice exams that I took the week of my test I got a 790 and an 800....so I figured I could have gotten a 750+. But, overall I'm very happy.

All of the preparation summaries from this forum really helped me shape my strategy.
