PLEASE HELP... Need ADVISE!!

by guru284 » Mon Jun 08, 2009 2:40 pm
Hello, I am setup to sit the GMAT on 10 July 09. My credentials:

BS in Business Admin
MS in HRM

I am going to study the kaplan book from front to back and I'm scheduled to take 2 kaplan practice test in the month of June.

With doing this, do you think it is possible that I will be able to score atleast a 500 GMAT score?

Any thoughts or advise will help.

GMAT Score:640

Some diligent preparation can guarantee you that score. 500 is just 38 percentile which means atleast 62% of all test takers score more than 500. So i dont think its really difficult.

I'm practically studying 4 hours a day until the test date (10 June 09). I'm using 2 different GMAT books for study guide as well as my MCAT book for reading comp and quantitive reasoning.

I will be taking two practice test at the Kaplan school in Atlanta GA on 14 June and 28 June. I'm not very good at the verbal, but my doing pretty good on the math and AWA. I think I'm going to try and focus more on those two sections instead of the verbal in order to get that minimum score.

This should be enough to be able to acquire that 500, dont you think?

Kaplan is great for students aiming for 500-650 so it seems like you've got a good chance at scoring 500.
