GMAT in 3 weeks from 270. What's your target score?
Yep.

If you would care to listen to my advice:

My suggestion would be to postpone the exam. I have been studying for 3weeks today, and it was yesterday that I felt I may be grasping the concept of timing/methodology. You may know how to do the question, but its the approach and timing that are key, and I don't think that is do-able in 3weeks.

if you really want the 600, then postpone your test. Only take it when you are consistently scoring 570+ in the MGMAT and GMATPrep CATs.

I just scored horribly on my first practice test (GMAT Prep1) what should I do next? I noticed I've problems in Rate problems and geometry may be I should focus on that

Any tips on what to do next?
