Final Countdown 13 days left

by mfleischner » Mon Aug 02, 2010 12:51 pm
I've been lurking here for a bit, really just picking up study tips and doing the self guided thing. I hit 700 on my fourth practice exam yesterday and am now scheduled for August 14th. Just wondering if anyone has some advice for the last 2 weeks going into the GMAT. I read the article on the final 72 hours, but I want to know if there is a way to maximize my time and efforts and continue the momentum and confidence I felt after beating the GMAT last night. Thanks in advance!

Congratulations on hitting 700 - if it makes you more confident know that most of us here are envious of you!

My first practice exam I got a 620 and then scored 580 2x on the next two exams. I hunkered down and just focused on brushing up my verbal because I was hitting ~41Q every time (I know it's not great I just need more time with math to get it right). Verbal was always my strong suit and so I just figured I was rusty. I read the entire MGMAT SC book and have been drilling questions. I'm pressing hard to take another practice soon and hopefully see another 700 so that I know come the 14th I'll get it for sure.
