Guys,

This forum is so great and helpful. These days, I check it almost daily for new tips and ideas.

Now. I am 4 days away from the test. Last week, I scored 680 on GMAT Prep . I have not been doing good in the Verbal, but I got 36 on the last one. I am targeting to score somewhere around 700. I think that will suffice my purpose.

Any good suggestions as to how to utilize these days best?
What kind of materials to revise?

I plan to take another GMAT prep on Friday, review theories and principles on Saturday and completely relax on Sunday. I am even thinking of going to a concert on Sunday so that I can keep myself away from thinking about GMAT !!

What do you guys suggest?

Congrats sampolo, you're in the homestretch!

There isn't much you can do over four days--I like your game plan for the final two days, especially going to the concert to get your mind off of the test.

If I were you I would do some casual review of key GMAT concepts with your remaining time and work on getting psychologically prepared for the 3 hour test.

I can't wait to hear how you do!

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
