I am looking for a forum where someone who has secured 800 posted his experience. Anybody else came through? So far I have seen two 790's one on this forum and one on GMATclub but not 800.

Here are the two 790's I have seen:

Please post if anybody has seen.

I will also like to listen from a person who secured 800 but I don't think those special creatures come on the forums.

Q 52??
IMHO Quant is scaled on 51

But take this with caveat . This thread if you look at last 2 pages you will come to know it was hoax. So you do dont want to fall into such trap.

Though this may be a hoax. The same believes I had in my mind that instead of preparing through the books of these companies like MGMAT, Kaplan or OG 12 there must be a base book for verbal sentence correction. You can not treat OG as base book as this book doesn't teach anything and just gives you questions and answer.
As far as economist suggestion is concerned, I don't agree completely rather I agree with MGMAT's approach of preparing detailed map of each passage. Once we know how to sketch the detailed map of passage then it doesn't matter how complicated science blinded passage is with 35 terms of science.

i agree with gmac2010 those people dont hang out on gmat forums!
it is true that an iit delhi chap got an 800. My husband happens to know two people who scored 800 on gmat (yes they are both from iit!). I don't remember his name, will ask him and post it tomorrow.

this test is super simple for some. in my household for instance, my husband, takes the exam just for a lark, to see what its all about and scores a 770. I have been at this test for 2 months now and not getting to the score I desire! life truly sucks when that happens!

I don't know about IIT Delhi guy but I can tell everybody in advance that I will be ONE WHO WILL GET NO OTHER SCORE BUT 790 or 800! I have not set up any time line nor I have any previous actual GMAT experience. This is just all about passion and drive. I have not even reached the score of 760 yet but still I am confident about the GMAT. Preparation is still going on. My view is that MBA is "once in a life Degree" so there is nothing I am loosing through investing time, money and energy in this passion. Everyday I learn a new trick, new illussion of test makers.

I intentionally didn't sign up for any MGMAT or Powerscore prep course because I want to achieve this goal in self-study mode in least possible expense.

More you grill yourself for GMAT preparation, better you become for B-School.

I firmly believe that GMAT has nothing beyond High School level be it Quant or Verbal but these are nothing but tricks of test makers which make it difficult.
