I have my GMAT in one month. I have been giving a few tests and want to know your feedback on how i should go about it now based on my previous scores on practice tests:
Kaplan 1: 580 (2 months back)
Kaplan 2: 560 (2 months back)
Kaplan 3: 700 (2 months back)
GMAT Prep 1: 640 (2 months back)
MGMAT 1: 630 (20 days back)
MGMAT 2: 640 (19 days back)
MGMAT 3: 640 (18 days back)
MGMAT 4: 670 (12 days back)
GMAT Prep 2: 730 (Yesterday) But with some repeat questions.
I'm aiming for 750 and above for my programs.
Any advice? I'm really worried about GMAT
Thanks in advance for all the help!

From my experience, my practice scores were directly correlated with my actual score. For example, when I first took the exam my practice scores ranged from 570-620. My ultimate goal was 680+, but I thought that during the actual exam I would some how increase 60 points. Not sure what I was thinking, but it's happened to some people. It wasn't until my practice tests were between 680-740 that I was able to score a 700 on the actual exam. I guess you really have to assess how you are as a test taker and also factor in how nerves might affect you (either in a positive or negative way).
If I had to do it again, I would have waited until I my practice exams were consisitenly within the range that I wanted and saved the $250 on the additional exam.

Hi,
Thanks for the post above, but can someone help me improve my verbal score?
On all my tests, my quant is a it sorted, i keep getting in the 49 - 51 range, but verbal really is going for a toss.
I can't move beyond the 35 - 38 range.
The thing is that with quant, i studied my mistakes and worked on them and improved.
But with verbal, i keep making the same mistakes again! i just can't seem to get it. I sometimes feel the answers are subjective. And i'm losing marks in all the 3 sections as well...
Not really sure how to improve my verbal.
FYI: i have pretty good English skills. my pronouns, modifiers, numbers, idiom etc are pretty strong as it is and i have improved them a bit more using study material, but i have still hit a wall in verbal...
pls help! need to get verbal up beyond 40 - 44 range.
