Hi guys,
I have been working for two months now, preparing for the GMAT.
I took the first GMATPrep Exam 1 two months ago, without preparation, to know my level : (Q37, V23), shocking score of 510. Why shocking? because I am aiming for 750, so the difference blew me off!!!
No worries, the day after the test, I started my preparation. I spent the whole month of September working on quant, using Manhattan GMAT along with the OG 13th. I retake the GMATPrep Exam 1 : (Q47, V18) : 530. Again, shocked, but less than the first time. Quite happy for Quant, happy for my confidence and timing in Quant during the test, but worried for the Verbal part. Ok, I had not yet started reviewing Verbal, but I definitely was not expecting my verbal score to drop.
Again, no worries. I spent the entire month of October working on verbal (again, Manhattan GMAT + OG 13th), and took a GMAT Prep 2 last saturday : Q46, V33 : 650.
I'm taking the official test in exactly one month : December the fourth.
My questions :
- what do you guys honestly think of my progression? Is the 750 score reachable at that pace? I think I can reach the 750 score, but I'd love your $0,02 on this, maybe I'm overly optimistic. It is kinda relaxed at work right now, so I can definitely put any amount of work into it, but I need a solid plan!
- what do I do now? With which set of materials? I have the specific Quand and Verbal OGs, but I'm afraid their questions are of a middle difficulty (600-650). I kept an error-log that I will meticulously review, but I don't know what else to do in the upcoming month.
Your advices, experience, whatever, will be crucial.
Thx a lot!!

Your life is your life!
Don't let it be clubbed into dank submission.
Be on the watch. There are ways out.
There is light somewhere. It may not be much light but it beats the darkness.
Be on the watch. The gods will offer you chances.
Know them, take them...
