Hi everyone,
I've taken the Test last week and needed some time over the weekend to recharge. Now as that's done I'm about to make plans on how to proceed.
My score is 650, which generally would be ok to me. The AWA went pretty good (though I haven't recieved the score yet), the IR section wasn't very good, but that wouldn't really bother me. However I unfortunately missed a good quant score.
My score is (39/40) which is in the 46th and 90th percentile. Of course I was nervous on test day and haven't slept well the night before, but that wasn't really the problem. Also I didn't get stuck too long with a particular question as I quickly just skipped it then. I guess I just wasn't prepared enough as I had to skip a few questions (more than in any practice test before though) and wasn't completly sure about too many others.
When I started studying, my Math skills were really beneath contempt, so I needed to refresh everything from the very beginning. In my last pratice test I scored 47 on quant, from 35 in my first test (in which I took many breaks and didn't really follow the rules).
For my preparation I used the Manhattan GMAT Strategy Guides and the 60 days study guide from here (https://www.beatthegmat.com/mba/gmat-guide), which I found really valuable.
I'm thinking about retaking the test within the next two month. I don't really have hard deadline, but I've spend the last 2 month studying and I've established kind of a routine, which I'd like to continue.
If you guys have any valuable advice on how to improve the Quant score, I'd be happy to hear it. Then I can hopefully complete this post in about 2 month with a success story.
