740(Q48 V44)

Hey everyone,

This is my first post (and probably last, unless you ask me questions!), but this forum has been very helpful for me and I wanted to give something back to the community!

I took my GMAT today, and scored 740.Although my quant score is well below my expectation,I am happy with my score.I prepared for around 3 months and used only Official guides for my practice.After a few days of my practice I took a GMAT Prep and scored 700.I figured out that SC and DS were my weak area and so I worked on them.
For SC I used Manhattan and Aristotle SC Grail.I also used Powerscore CR and found it extremely useful.
Two days before the GMAT exam I took GMAT Prep2 and scored 760 although I saw some repeat questions.I then spent the last couple of days before the GMAT reading over the questions I had done wrong, as well as reading the answers of the last 20 questions of each question type to keep all of the methods fresh in my head. I did nothing GMAT related on the day before the GMAT. The Actual GMAT test was more or less same as GMAT Prep

Congrats. I wonder why you had to copy the lines from this post.
