Hello everyone,,
In 2007 when GMAT Test was considered easier then & I got 500 without much preparation. This time I am aiming higher close to 650 and have been preparing systematically on and off since 2011 I prepared for Verbal for 3-4 months thoroughly using books suggested. Doing questions now from OG 10TH and 13th and , plan to do Verbal 700-800 material available on net . I have bought GMAT Prep Pack 1 and GMAT Exam Pack 1 but didnt use it till now. So far about a month ago I was around 540 - 27 Verbal 37 Quant (Since then I have started revising wrong questions , the 1000 series was considered out of scope I tried some LSAT material for CR in 2011 was able to hit 2-3 wrong mark , I started with Powerscore CR , I did old edition in 2011 and latest edition this time , Problems are easy in new edition . I did RC from Powescore again revised Doing Grammar , in 2011 I did it twice and was able to days in a weeks time . Anyways after I started OG 10 this week first I was not able to solve them well to the point I really thought I have gone brain dead, then started to get it better. Sometimes for CR answer choices you think are right are close to being right answers are really close . I have around 2 weeks to improve because I dont want to stretch it indefinitely . Revised the GMAT prep results and saw how many wrong answers i had them around 7-8 per section I plan to bring them around 3-4 in whole test. I have LSAT material too....
