Just a week to go !!

by TargetGmat9 » Sun Oct 12, 2008 2:15 pm
Hey , I have just a week to go for the D Day.

Took Gprep yesterday. Scored 720(Q49,V39) Did a couple of silly mistakes in Quant , but saw some toughies in Verbal SC (Which I was otherwise comfortable with. This was a dampener) Other than that I am facing some issues with RC :( Trying hard to overcome, but not much success. :cry: Any suggestions ?!
Took 800Score.com Test 5 today (Q59,V42)

I am not sure how much these scores are indicative of my actual preparation . Can you give me some last moment tips !!

Please reply !

The GMAT Prep scores tend to be pretty accurate, so you will likely score somewhere in the high 600s or low 700s.

If you haven't studied RC at all (many students don't), you might want to devote some time to reading passages and analyzing all the answer choices in the questions that follow. You'll be surprised how often the same logical patterns and question types are tested.

Hi Jim,

Thanks for your reply.
I have studied RC but still I am struggling in that area.
I'll try to work upon that.

Other than that , can you suggest any thing. I am targetting anything above 720.
