okay I got greedy since my verbal score tanked 6 points on GMAT Exam Pack Exam 4 ( I decided to get personal tuition for that), I need to increase my Quant score(I took tution sessions for Quant 6 months ago to improve my overall performance . I take the new question types in Exam Pack Verbal to be truly representative of GMAT Verbal,I improved on data sufficiency but have bought 3 new mini books Indian Ones (1 on Number system by Nishit K Sinha , Data sufficiency by Time ( Pearson ) How to Crack Test of arithmetic by Richa Agarwal ) .I have exactly 2 weeks for GMAT ( I decided to reschedule it from 29th since I panicked on seeing my verbal score there was no way of even touching 600 score , I am stuck at 530-540 level even after increasing my Quant score by 5 points.I didnt solve last 3-4 Questions in Quant because my timer went off .Are GMAT Club Tests helpful to get to 47-48 level ?

Forgot to suggest earlier the MGMAT Advanced Quant might be something you'd like to look at -- it does a nice job outlining the best way to take notes for harder Quant problems, and identifies the common traps and ways GMAT Data Sufficiency can esp. be made harder.

"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."
