my fellow warriors,
I have been preparing for GMAT for a month with self study but recently enrolled into VeritasPrep course and it is running into my 3rd week and took the first test last weekend and and this weekend, I took GmatPrep test.
Test Date Verbal score Quant score Total score
800score 2009-11-07 32 32 540
GMATPrep 2009-11-15 21 35 470
During my analysis of GmatPrep, I have noticed that most of my questions that were incorrect is in DataSufficicency questions and in Verbal, i found few of them in Sentence Correction, Critical reasoning and few in RC.
I have learnt Critical reasoning in my veritasprep class and also i did some practice but during the test, when I find strenthen question, i am not able to recollect my strategy like once i find my conclustion and i need to find my premise and look for choices which will strengthen the conclusion. It seems my strategies in CR havent got into my muscle memory or actionable meaning without thinking, i should be able to do it.
Also, i spend good amount of 3 hrs on geometry as i wanted to strenthen my subject expertise in geometry but i got one problem in geometry and i could not solve it. probability, i havent mastered yet and so with standard deviation.
Also, i have noticed my classes or during my self study, i am enjoying Quant but with verbal such as Critical reasoning, I am dreading. sentence correction, i like them but on the exam, few questions, i am able to zero-in on two choices but picked up wrong choice like impulsive decision.
Also, I ran out of time both on Verbal and Quant, so in the end, i am forced to guess(there is no time for educated guess) as I come to like 1 minute for 1 question so I was picking up choices blindly and this would have cost me score.
Still, i am not getting the magic pill that i read here people are scoring 700+ and i am still not able to score even 600.
Also,i have noticed that in Quant, i have 19 incorrect questions and in verbal, around 20 questions are incorrect.
I was disappointed last night with my latest score.
Also, I havent made any Study plan yet and i should do one immediately. Also, it seems i might have not made overall improvement in all areas where i took time to improve my subject expertise only in geometry, algebra while i neglected other areas in my last week study.
awaiting all you guys opinion, but dont discourage like that's what my capabilities are as I know, i might be not giving my best effort yet.
Thank you for the creator of this website,forum as this is only website i am browsing to find some motivation and help useful and seems more interactive and diverse.
