GMAT Tip of the Day: Get Pumped!

The process of increasing your Verbal score is a game of inches: every concept you learn, every strategy you master, every practice question you do, you get closer to your goal. The great news is that there is no ceiling to how high your Verbal score can go. The idea that you have a Verbal score ceiling is a myth.

So, be confident that you can develop the skills necessary for achieving your score goal, regardless of your starting point or the struggles that you face during your GMAT prep. I’ve seen many TTP students increase their GMAT scores by hundreds of points, including making huge gains in their Verbal scores. One TTP student, for example, started with a GMAT score of 250 and ended up with a score of 780.
Another TTP student recently went from a 520 to a 740. As long as you continue to develop your skills, your score will continue to increase.

Seek to enjoy the GMAT Verbal game as you learn to master it. See it as a fun challenge rather than as something boring or intimidating. At its core, Verbal Reasoning is kind of a cool, tricky logic game, and you’re learning to play the game! Moreover, you’re doing something important for your future — this game is going to open many doors for you. Get pumped!

Happy Studying!

Warmest regards,
Scott
