Hey Guys,

I need some help / guidance!

I have written the GMAT three times with disastrous results. My goal is to achieve 700+ and apply to top ranked American schools. Below is my official GMAT scores from my three tries.

GMAT Official Exam #1 (March 2011): 640 (Q 44 / V34)
GMAT Official Exam #2 (May 2012): 620 (Q 48 / V 27)
GMAT Official Exam #3 (May 25, 2013): 600 (Q 44 / V 29)

Leading upto my Third official exam, I wrote 6 practice exams, 4 from MGMAT, and 2 official practice exams. The scores are indicated below. I am having a very hard time transferring my success on practice exams to the official exam. Can anyone help by suggesting what I am doing wrong or what I can possibly do different during the exam? I feel nervous during the exam, but not sure if that is accounting for such a steep drop off from practice exams to the official exam. I feel that I know the content, but I am unable to pinpoint what I am doing wrong. Any suggestion / help will be much appreciated. Also, I am wondering if I should attempt the GMAT one more time.

MGMAT CAT#1: 660 (Q45 / V 35)
MGMAT CAT#2: 730 (Q 45 / V 45)
MGMAT CAT31: 660 (Q 43 / V 37)
MGMAT CAT#4: 700 (Q 47 / V 39)

Official Practice exam #1: 720 (Q48 / V38)
Official Practice exam #2: 710 (Q 48 / V37)

I took offical gmat and just looked at wrong answers. I realized four of them were DS questions and two careless errors. I kind of realized I over look DS questions.

I did the same thing with verbal. I was missing RC.

Well, this helped me realize what I am doing wrong.

Also, did you try quantitative bundle tool?
It is little expensive but it is worth it!
It will pinpoint it for you.

Hey sparkles3144,

Thanks for your feedback. I will definitely evaluate the quant bundle you mentioned.
Any suggestion for improvement on verbal?

Hey!

I bought this
https://www.mba.com/store/store-catalog/ ... ction.aspx
This thing had everything.

However, I did not find the whole thing useless.
In my opinion, Quant Bundle and following question pack are really helpful.

My verbal score was like 19 or so. It was awful.
I read Manhattan CR book and then I practiced
https://www.mba.com/store/store-catalog/ ... ack-1.aspx

After that my verbal score was 30.
It actually showed me my average time, number of errors, and percentile.
It times every question too!

Hope that helped!
