Hi there,
I find your story inspirational!
and I am sorta on the same boat as you on the scoring...except I have not achieved a 700+ yet.
My test date is March 1, and I am really stressed at this point...my score has improved, especially on the Verbal, but the last two weeks I have see a major decline in the score...so with only a handful days left before the test, do you think you can give me some tips? Thanks.
please help

This should be right up your alley -- biggest thing is to build a solid plan for the next ten days. I think these two articles might help with that. Good luck!

If you can provide more info about what your score diagnostic results suggest, I'd be more than happy to weigh in with additional thoughts.
Thanks.

Hi,
If your scores are declining then try taking a 1 day break. I know its difficult to imagine with just 10 days away from the real test, but its worth trying. I feel you are getting over worked and stressed.
In that break dont study, but "THINK" about the areas you can maximise most. Solve ONLY official questions in the next 10 days. Then think about your 2 weak areas and see if you can brush up the basics in 2 days. In next 10 days you should spend maximum time on top 3 strong areas.
Take 2 official tests, just to build stamina and to feel the test environment.
