Guys, what are in your opinion some Q+V combinations that would land me at least a 710 on my gmat?

Is q44 v42 one of these? 45q 41v? What else?

thanks!

You should Google the score combo you're interested in and see if anyone has posted that same combination on this or another GMAT board before. I just did a search for "44Q 42V" and found someone who scored a 700 with those raw scores.

If you look through the "I just beat the GMAT" section you will get a very good sense of where different score combinations land.

Yeh, I was amazed too to see that a couple of ppl got a 700 with 44/42!
And while many get a 710 with Q45 V41, a small number of them get only 700! This is scary!!

I'm aiming at a Q45 V41, (and in my gmatprep that was equal to a 710), so let's hope for the best!!

"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."
