Hi,

My question may sound weird but here it goes.
I had consistently been getting scores in the range of 640 to 670 in the gmat prep and Mgmat exams since starting my prep 1 month ago. But last week I bought the exam pack 1 and have scored 710 and 700.. I don't understand this sudden increase in score. I have taken the exam under strict test conditions along with the AWA. So my question is that "Is the difficulty level of the pack very less? or has my preparation really started to bring in the results?"
My preparation included doing the entire OG, and solving the 8 MGMAT books along with a little of the CR bible. My gmat is less than 10 days away. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks,
Tejaswini

Hi tejaswini0712,

It's possible (even likely) that you're starting to get comfortable with the "GMAT mindset" needed to score at a high level. You've seen enough material to know what to expect and your skills have improved/adapted to handle the rigors of a full GMAT CAT. As long as you've been taking the ENTIRE practice CAT each time (and not skipping any sections or doing anything else "unrealistic" - such as pausing the test), then we have to use those results as a reliable indicator of your ability.

Since you're scoring better now, you should stick to your routine. Don't try to do too much and don't take any full CATs too close to Test Day.

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
