Hi Guys!
This is an awesome resource for all B-school aspirants and for all the folks preparing for GMAT. I have been following this site for some time now and I have my own test scheduled on the 7th of next month. I am posting this to seek some advise on my diminishing performance.
I took my first Kaplan online practice test last week and got a score of 670 (Q46/V39), following which I took MGMAT 1 (630 - Q42/V34) and MGMAT 2 (630 - Q42/V34). Also, I guess it's worth mentioning here that I took my first GMAT prep test almost 2 months back to ascertain my level then and got a 700 in that test (I have been preparing for GMAT since then). Now, before I take the rest of the tests of MGMAT and Kaplan series, my concern is that my score is diminishing with every test rather than improving. Also, with the 2 MGMAT tests that I have taken so far, I have a feeling that I am somewhat forgetting the concepts that I had learned (specially Quant) before taking these tests.
I am a PhD (marketing) aspirant and aiming a score of 730-740 to get through a good B-school, but my negative curve of performance has started to give me a fright of what's in the "store" for me! I am loosing confidence and getting demotivated. Can someone please suggest what am I doing wrong or may be what shall I do as I really don't have the liberty of time with me now (given I have precisely 19 days left to my test day)!
Shall I just summarize all the concepts again and not concentrate on taking tests or is it normal to get such scores in these tests and I shall carry on with my existing schedule of taking tests and reviewing mistakes?
All comments are welcome. I look forward to see some replies soon to help me get over my anxiety:)
