Hello all,

i took the gmat test after 3 months of study( not much effort). using the official guide 2017 and the magoosh premium. scored a 460(Q30 V24) I decided to take another one in a month. What can i do that will help jump at least 90 points . The University i am going to apply to has a minimum accepted of 500 but i am aiming for 550. I am going to use the magoosh one month study plan: https://magoosh.com/gmat/2012/1-month-g ... -schedule/

Also can anyone suggest good readings that will prepare me for the verbal section sentence correction.

thank you all

There's a lot of information that you haven't given us:

- how many practice tests have you taken? Have you taken them all with accurate timing, and do you have a good timing balance?

- how have you been tracking and reviewing your work? Are you keeping track of error that you make? More here: https://www.manhattanprep.com/gmat/blog ... -studying/

- how much time can you commit before you take the test again?

There is a lot of very helpful information throughout this forum, and on the Manhattan Prep blog: https://www.manhattanprep.com/gmat/blog/
I'm sure other companies have very helpful blogs, too.

Don't just focus on cramming content. You need to focus on study strategy!

"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."
