So I just took my first GMAT Prep. Practice Test. I got a 590, which for me is not terrible, but I really need as close to a 630 as possible. I got a 34 in Quant. (18 wrong) and a 38 in Verbal (12 wrong). I think I can do better in Verbal, its usually my strong area as a whole and I think I completely cheesed on a very tough Reading Comp. prompt. So looking at these scores, is this fairly accurate of how I may do on the actual test? I know its been asked many times, but... I also scored a 550 on a Kaplan online test. So, I feel like I'm progressing, but I'm also running out of time and need to beef my score up.
How much would I approximately need to improve my scores to get a 630? Does the GMAT Prep. use the same matrix as the test? Like if I get a 38 on quant and a 40 on verbal, should I hit my mark? Maybe 3-4 more questions right in each section?
I still have a month of studying left, but think I'll only be able to take one more practice test (GMAT Prep. 2). I think I can improve more, but am a little stumped on what to do. I have the OG 11, so I plan on working in that, but beyond practicing questions, I feel like there's something else I can do. Any comments/advice are appreciated.
