740 with BTG's 60 day study plan

by Chiquitita » Wed Nov 14, 2012 12:30 am
Hi all

Just got back from the GMAT exam. Scored a 740 Q50,V39.
I have had less than 2 months prep and the only study material I referred to were MGMAT guides and OG. I enrolled in BTG's 60 day study planand found it to be a very effective tool to organize my study and practice. I kept up with the material, and in fact today is only day 55 as per the plan but I had registered for the exam today because of various reasons.

A bit disappointed with my verbal score - i felt that it went really well. The last 2 tests that I took were GMAT Prep 2 (720) and MGMAT CAT 6 (760). So, I am a lil sad that I didn't cross the 750 mark but ah,well!

The only tip that I would like to give is to ensure that you have attempted and reviewed each and every question in all the 3 OG books combined. That, by itself, should have you covered if the concepts are already in place.

All the best to everyone else.

Cheers!

Congratulations. Very well done!
When you say 3 OGs, you mean Edition 11, 12 and 13?
