So my overall goal is to breach the 700 mark. I am in no rush, it is my senior year in college and I want to get the GMAT out of the way and possibly go to school in the following year.
Anyway I keep scoring rather low on the GMAT prep. I have taken it three times already and have seen steady improvement but not at the rate that I wish to see it. Here is what I have studied thus far:
1) Princeton Cracking the GMAT, and the Practice Problems (pretty disappointed in the book actually and the DVD is a total ripoff...Not trying to be negative just was a bit disappointed.)
2) OG Review nearly all Quant. questions and most of the Verbal
3) MGMAT (Through Geometry Guide)
4) MGMAT flashcards
5) BTG Practice Questions
I can do almost every problem in the OG Review. I think I just might be having a hard time applying what I have learned. I have been at this since mid January. I am not too sure what I might be doing wrong. I think it has something to do with my testing strategy. I would like to take the GMAT at the end of April but I do not want to schedule it before I start scoring in the 600 range of the GMATPrep.
Scores Thus far:
1) 490 (Diagnostic Test)
2) 530
3) 540 (ONLY ten point difference c'mon!)
Any leads would be greatly appreciated. If you are contributing I would like to go ahead and say thank you for your time, your input means a lot to me and I appreciate the time you have spent writing back to me.

If your going to make the conscious decision to something, then you gotta either do it or not do it - it's as simple as that - Travis Rice
