I am a little perplexed that my scores have dipped over the last 2 weeks , I started of with GMAT Prep 1 and scored 690 (Quant 49 and Verbal 34),Princeton 610 (Quant 44 and Verbal 30) and Knewton 630(Quant 46 and Verbal 29).

I gave the Princeton and Knewton after some prep , and I see my scores have dipped.

I'm a little worried about this performance.

I have 5 weeks left to the exam , what do you guys suggest?

Thanks.

I think it's tough to determine whether or not your scores have actually dipped. In a way, you are comparing apples with oranges.
The GMATPrep tests use official, retired GMAT questions along with the official GMAT scoring algorithm. The other tests do not.

I suggest that you take another GMATPrep test.

Cheers,
Brent

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
