Hi
I have been preparing for almost month and a half. I was feeling I know concepts and getting gist of it.I am not sure if it is my last mock which put me down as I scored 500. But I feel kind of blank and not so confident about approaching problems.

Also time constraint seems to be another factor. I am not sure if I should schedule exam in October?

Please advise

Thank you
Parul

What's your target? Is it close to where you've been scoring?

I'd encourage you to read a few articles which may help you figure out how 'close' you are.

Hi Parul,

In addition to answering the question about what your goal is, you should also consider:

1) How you've been scoring on your other practice CATs?
2) Are you on a deadline? If so, can you adjust your plan to allow you more time to study?
3) What resources have you been using to study?

"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."
