Hey folks,
I took the GMAT for the 8th time today, and ended up scoring a 600 only. My previous scores ranged from 580-630. I have spent 12 months studying for the exam, but seems like God is not wiling to make me successful. On the real exam, my quant hovered around 44-46 and my verbal never passed 33. I have taken about 25 mocks and never scored lower than a 650. For the past couple months, I scored 760(MGMAT), 750 (PR) and a 690 (Kaplan). My GMATPrep scores on 1st attempts were 690 and 730. I seriously think that the mocks don't represent the real exam. The verbal is so different.
I am a non-native speaker, who grew up in US. I have read MGMAT SC 6 times and Powerscore bible 4 times. I have also solved pretty much every single verbal question on BTG and my accuracy is usually around 85%. Oh, and I have also done OG, GMATPrep Pack1 and GMATPrep paper tests. All in vain. The worst part is I tutored a friend for 2 months, and he scored a 710.
One thing I would add is that I was diagnosed with ADHD in college and that made has my life miserable. I always lose my focus during the verbal part, but, for some reasons, it only happens on the real exam.
I am applying to Top20 schools with a 630, but really want to take the exam one more time. Does any one know if GMAC will let me take a 6th exam during a 180 day period?
Regards.
