Hello everyone!!
Here I am after my 4th attempt to gmat exam. I got a score of 610(Q50, V23)
It was a real surprise for me as I was expecting a higher score than 610
So here is some information:
I gave full 4 month for this attempt. In this duration, I gave 9 full length mock exams
1. Veritas - 650
2. Veritas - 650
3. Manhattan - 650
4. Manhattan - 680
5. Manhattan - 680
6. Gmat exam 1 - 730(repeat)
7. Manhattan - 680
8. Gmat exam 5 - 690(4 days before the exam)
9. Gmat exam 6 - 710(2 days before the exam)
In all the above exams quant score varied between 49 and 51. And my verbal score varied from 33 to 36
In the last mock exam I scored Q50, V35.
Hence I was very optimistic about my main exam. I did not practice anything other than IR on the day before the exam
On the day of the exam everything was according to the plan - i completed AWA and Ir and Quant confidently.
When the first verbal question was displayed, I almost could not understand the SC.. but somehow I got the 3/2 split and eventually the answer. The next question was CR, I consumed a lot of time here again. I guess, this eventually built up stress, contributing to the low score.
I am here for suggestion as I am really disappointed with the score and I have following questions
1. Shall I reappear for the exam?
2. If yes, then how shall I start?
3. Shall I practice by attempting a lot of mock exams? Will that help?
4. Shall I start with the basics again? I worked on the basics for last few months but I was unable to apply them properly on the main exam! Is it the "gmat effect" or something else?
5. Is there something wrong with the last day prepartion as I dint solve any questions on that day?
I am targeting a score of 700+
And thanks in advance for your time and support
