I received the official scores. AWA 5.5 (88 %tile). This pretty much balances all the areas of GMAT, an end result that I was aiming for. My target school favors a balanced score rather than a score skewed towards one section.

Congratulations 3G. I have my test due on the 27th of this month. And it's my first time. I am super tensed about it. However, I am only targeting for a 600+ in this attempt. :oops:

In my GMATPrep1 I scored 590 with Q 46 and V 27. However the second attempt was no good at all! Only a 550 with Q 43 and V 23. I found the GMATPrep a lot tougher than the OG books, and Q section seemed time consuming to me. I am working hard to finish all the questions from GMATPrep to get used to the pattern.

Is there anything else you think I should do within this 2 weeks to secure at least a 600+?

Thanks.

Hi,

This'll be a 4th attempt for me as well.

I am really out of all material, have practiced from whereever possible.

Any suggestions what tests to take?

Hi Pre-Gmat.

I can understand your problem.
Try tests from crack-gmat.com or catprep.com
These tests, although not representative of real GMAT (or even near to it) will help you remain in test-taking mode.
Have you tried princeton review tests. I found their verbal...to be closer to real GMAT.
In case you need additional practice materials then let me know.

best,
3G
