I took the last 4 weeks off from work to study for the GMAT. I signed up for Kaplan and completed must of the online material in the online syllabus.
There were 8 CATs offered and I took one every two days and spent about 4 hours reviewing each.
Scores ranged from 620 to 680 on the CATs.
The more recent ones were 660 and 680.
The Ultimate Practice Test: 640
I took the GMATPrep CAT 1: 710
then took the GMATPrep CAT 2: 680
Most of my verbal percentiles in Kaplan ranged from high 80s to 90s. Quantitative usually ranged in the 60s.
I took the diagnostic in the OG and scored Very Good to Excellent on almost all categories.
I finished the test with just enough time to spare on each of the two sections.
My final GMAT Score: 600 / 66%
Quanti (42 / 63%); Verbal (31 / 68%)
I have the following materials
- Kaplan Book
- Kaplan CDs
- Official Guide (that I did not use other than the diagnostic questions)
- GMATPrep Practice Test offered from mba.com
How should I prioritize my studying? How much longer should I set aside for studying?
