dejected..

by vikram4689 » Mon Sep 24, 2012 5:39 am
i need some words of motivation. after months of prep, i gave mgmat cat today and got meagre 710 (36 V). i don't know how to tackle this, what to improve. time is certainly one thing that i need to improve. can experts share how should i use immense assessments reports generated by mgmat cat to improve myself.

i say "dejected" because i have been getting >90% accuracy in verbal and when i tried most of incorrect question, i was able to solve them. so what do i have to improve actually, when i try to revise my notes i feel i already know these.

Vikram,

MGMAT has lowered down its scoring a bit. On MGMAT got a 690 in May and a 660 yesterday :).
5 mistakes in MGMAT Quant gave me a 83% ile. Send me a PM if you want to discuss further.
Try some other test to double check.
