Hi,


I am a Brazilian GMAT re-taker, and have a 660 (Q47 V34) and next monday (a week from now) I will try to break the 700 barrier again.

For the first try I used the Economist GMAT, I found it great to build foundations (especially being non-native) but somehow the transition from their GMAT-like questions to the real GMAT is not ideal.

For the current retake I focused on th MGMAT Advanced Quant Book and used part of the E-Gmat SC course, besides Veritas question bank. Did not practice much CR or RC besides CATs.


Unfortunately, I wasted too many Mocks on the first try, Veritas, Manhattan and the 4 GMATPrep. Given that I had to retake Sim test, therefore I don't have an accurate prediction.

My last mocks

GMATPrep 4 - Sunday Sep 21st - 720

GMATPrep 3 - Sunday Sep 28th - 710 (Q47 V40)

Manhattan 1 - Saturday Oct 4th - 710 (I had took the test 4 months ago, did not remembered any question but did had to do the Verbal section later)

GMATPrep 1 - Sunday Oct 5th - 760 (Q49 V46) (I took the test 2,5 months ago, did not remember any answer but noticed I had already done some questions)


My questions:

My test is on Monday, a week from now, what should I do to help "secure" a 700? Any tips?

> Should I practice the topics I am bad at or good at? Try to learn new things? Or only do OG sets?

> Practice 3 hrs every day (except Sunday?) or this could be detrimental at this point?

> Do only official questions?

> Should I take another Sim test (Saturday)? (thinking about retake GMATPrep 2)


Experts, your advices would be sincerely appreciated.


Tks in advance

Paulo
