My tests is in less than 48 hours!
After one week of earnest prepartion for the GMAT, I took two 2008 GMAT CAT Practice Tests this past weekend, scoring 530 and 550. Judging from the results, it was evident I needed to focus on Data Sufficiency and Reading Comprehension -- my two glaring weak areas. Accordingly, I focused on these two sections of the test by subsequently working through some of the practice problems in the OG GMAT text.
Last night, I took one of the 2007 GMAT CAT Practice Tests, scoring yet another 550. Here's the breakdown of my performance:
Q(37, 14 incorrect)
Problem Solving - 7 incorrect
Data Sufficiency - 7 incorrect
V(41, 15 incorrect)
Reading Comprehension - 9 incorrect
Critical Reasoning - 4 incorrect
Sentence Correction - 2 incorrect
At this point, I'm debating whether I'd be better served to continue taking practice tests to hone my time-management skills and overcome the shock-factor of taking a computer-based test -- or address the fundamentals of Problem Solving, Data Sufficiency, and Reading Comprehension by working through more of the practice problems in the OG text.
