Please help! Advice needed urgently!

by NeedtobeattheGmat » Wed Nov 25, 2009 7:19 am
Hello everyone,

I have been reading different posts on this wonderful forum for about a month now, and decided to seek advice from anyone who might have a suggestion on how can I improve my score. I took the princeton course during the summer, but did not keep up with it. I started to study in Sept, and went through all the PR materials including all the OG questions PR asks you to do as part of the class. My score is just not getting any better, I am at 480. I don't know what to do at this point and feel very discouraged so any advice on what materials to use etc. would be greatly appreciated! My exam is in 3.5 weeks and I am really worried. Please help!

Thank you!

If you didn't keep up with the course, then I'd start there. The only way to improve is through disciplined preparation over time. There's no magic bullet or easy way out. You gotta do the time. A little every day goes a long way if you stick with it.

I Just have my personal opinion for you. If I would be you then I would cancel the test. Practice! Practice! Practice! that's all GMAT is about. Untill you start getting your target score at home be it 650 or 750, never register for test. Not just one time atleast 3-4 times. let's say you want to score 700 then untill you are actually able score near 700 on different-2 test such as ManhattanGMAT, GMAC, Princeton review etc in actual test conditions at home never register. Multiple attempts will also make situation bad. It is not to discourage you but it is just my opinion.
