First of all let me thank the BTG team and community for this website.

On November 29th, I am having GMAT test, first time in my life. I have all the deadlines to schools that I am going to apply close to end of January. Couple US and others are European.

My target GMAT score is at least 700+ . I've been lets say sometimes studying for GMAT during summer. I didn't spend much time consequitevily studying. However, last night after registring I downloaded the practice test and scored only 510. 16 incorrect in math and around 19 incorrect in verbal. However I do find both parts not that hard. My main problems were data sufficency, topics: combination, statistics (standard deviation, median and etc), slope problems and in couple places data suffiency problems with geometry. Verbal was grammar problem mistakes, in some places text and this logical thing, where you have to give reason. Time management was not a big problem.

So I got only 50 days and target score of 700+ . I know most of the time it all depends on us, but please if possible give me an advice on how to reach this target.

Yes Practice is the key.
Since you have already studied most of it. You just have to give more and more practice tests to see your week areas.

I my self scored low on actual GMAT score. I dont want to give you the actual score! But hey! it can be done.

Just do it....

Good Luck.
Do what your heart says......
