Like many others I need to apply for round 2 which means I have one month to get my score up. Is there any advice or guidance anyone can provide? Am I battling the impossible or can it be done? Please shed some light...


Thanks!

I've seen score increases in the 200+ range in one month, but they're very rare occurrences.
Get to work! :-)

Cheers,
Brent

To achieve a 200+ score increase, you must study smart.

I suggest a systematic approach, in which you take the time to master each topic/concept (e.g., percents, ratios, assumption questions in critical reasoning, comparison questions in sentence correction, etc.).

So, for each topic/concept, you should:
1) Learn the underlying concepts (rules, attributes, notation, etc.)
2) Learn GMAT-specific strategies related to that topic
3) Practice dozens of questions all related to that one topic.
4) Don't stop working on that topic until you have mastered it
Then, and only then, move on to the next topic.

You should also use an Error Log (aka Improvement Chart) while completing questions from the Official Guide (OG). You can find a free downloadable Improvement Chart here: https://www.beatthegmat.com/mba/gmat-error-log. This will help you identify and strengthen your weak areas.

I also suggest that you spend a lot of time reviewing the responses from the Experts on this site, since they often model the steps you should be taking when answering question.

In addition to learning the core concepts and GMAT-specific strategies, be sure to work on your endurance and test-taking skills (e.g., time management) by taking several practice tests.

Dear Brent,

Thank you for getting back to me! I appreciate it! I just sent you a message, so feel free to ignore that. I haven't studied the verbal yet, so yes I need to expedite at this point. I have all the Manhattan GMAT books and have worked through many of the problems haphazardly (to be honest), I feel as though I'm constantly going in circles without a defined structure on how to tackle this beast of an exam. I am considering Knewton, as watching explanations may help rather than reading about it. Your advice is again greatly appreciated. I will follow asap.

Many thanks!
Far A.
