I used Manhattan GMAT series, Kaplan math workbook 2009 but still no improvement in my study. I am over 60% in SC but I struggle with RC and CR. Maybe, I am always stress when taking the test.
Please, help, I need to apply to Ohio State Part time MBA either this summer or this fall.
jamesbrown I think the main problem with you is stress....and that is due to u don't have confidence in you...While you solve problem..First try to solve any book without caring for time ... and gain confidence..
Never forget a work started is half done and ur getting 60% only that means u r just short of confidence.
when u r over with ur solving problem of the book whichever u have..then try it solving in time may be 2-3 minutes which you think of is better..
gradually decrease ur time for solving..but never solve problem wrongly in haste..always try to solve it correct whatever time it takes...
Also I wanna say that ... whenever you make a mistake in any problem..check out for solution..and check what is the general point which is new for u ..not for that specific problem only but in general for other problems too..
tis woul d really help you to reach atleast 700...
