First off I have to thank this forum and people who are so active here. I found a lot of help here to get me through, stories - good and bad, flashcards, do's and dont's and much more.
I took my GMAT this morning and got a 710 which is slightly above expectations and just what I needed. Not very detailed but my prep story is on my blog - https://maymbajourney.blocked/
As far as what worked and what did not goes, I'll be happy to help and contribute in anyway possible. Its funny how a good score instills that sort of confidence.
I'm not adding what worked and what did not here as I have that written on my blog and will keep adding more on it.
The most important thing is to know yourself and identify what works for you and what does not. There are plenty of stories to read through and pick what you need.
Everyone says that you need to know your weak points in content. While I did know that clearly in quant I could not pin point whether my sc went wrong in parallelisms, sva or tenses or anything else. I just knew that when the question was difficult in verbal I had more chances of getting it wrong and that I'm in the habit of overlooking and not reading everything. Reading carefully and avoiding carelessness is all I needed to improve verbal. With that advice I'll stop myself from pretending like I'm an expert.
Wanted to post this on the forum because most of my friends and family don't understand what a good or bad score is in GMAT and I needed to show off my success a bit.
