Hi everyone, I've been studying for the GMAT one and half month already, mostly on the quantitative section. I feel quite good with the math itself but the problem arises when i do the practice questions....I have an average of 50% of correct questions on the OG12. is that to bed??
I studied from the Kaplan premier and I havent taken a complete test yet because I'm waiting to finish up the verbal theory part but if things will continue to go in this way which score should i expect on the test day?
What is your average % on the practice quiz and how much have you scored on the GMAT? Please give some tips!!!
Thank you

Hey,

Stop worrying about how many you got wrong. Figure out why you got them wrong so that the next time you get a similar question you can kill it.

The more you got wrong means that you have so much more room to improve your score. So keep at it, maintain an error log and revisit all you incorrect questions till you know them all and what mistakes you made.

Do this and the result will take care of itself.

I hope my post helps!!

Cheers!

Hi,

Take a look at this article. It tries to correlate number of mistakes with the possible score on the GMAT:
