Scored 700, Q 47, V 39 But AWA 3.5? How Bizzare

by vinnies12 » Fri Sep 09, 2011 5:05 am

I just got the official report for the test I took earlier this week. I was hoping for more on AWA, am completely blindsided by 3.5 on AWA.

Does the AWA score matter? Should I retake the GMAT or focus on the applications?

Thanks
Vinay

Congrats on your score!! Do not retake gmat just to improve your AWA scores. ideally anyhtng above 4 is fine, but theres lot more you can do than prepare again for gmat.
I would suggest come up with strong essays, show adcom how well you can express yourself.

Personal opnion though.

Have time? https://www.beatthegmat.com/730-q-50-v40 ... 88058.html

Hey sad to hear that. Unless you can give convincing reaaon why you got such a low score in AWA, adcom is not going to believe you that your excellent essays are weitten by you only. AWA is there for a reason. Lot of schools expect an AWA score of atleast 4.5

"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."
