Dear all,

I am new to this wonderful forum, I have read a lot of successful stories in GMAT at this forum which really inspired me a lot. So I decided to give a try to GMAT which may be beneficial for my career.

Personal details: I am an engineer form a govt college and working in an oil company of India(PSU) since last 5 years in management cadre only.

preparation details; I started my prep in Feb with a first diagnostic test in which I scored 540. After some preparation I appeared for MGMAT test 1 and scored dismal 580 ,again after a month preparation I scored 630( Q47, V31) in MGMAT2. I am really disappointed by my progress.

Kindly let me know by your experiences whether GMAT is my cup of tea or not because I really have to put a lot of extra efforts to produce time for preparation. It is really killing me and such scores are really disappointing. Should I realize that I am not fit for GMAT and concentrate on some other action plans or should I continue with the studies.

My prep books; 1. SC by manhattan
2. CR by powerscore
3. Practice by OG 12

thanks in advance

regards

From your improvement and your 630 it appears that you could do very well on the GMAT. It looks like you need to focus more on what the GMAT tests and how they test it so that you can improve your accuracy in the questions. You will still need to study consistenly to achieve more improvement but it can certainly be done.

Best of Luck.

"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."
