GMAT Strategy

Hello,

I just took the practice test in Barron's CD that comes with the book GMAT,
anyway it shows me that

i got 19 correct in Quantitative (the percent written next to it 51%)
and 19 correct in Verbal (the percent written next to it 46%)

How do i calculate my Final Gmat ?? PLZ if anybody knows just let me know or how can i get the Scaled Score or Percentile ??

I don't think you can. I for one couldn't and was pretty annoyed by this, because I basically spent over two and a half hours without getting a score. Not only this, but the program had bugs in it, like a PS question coupled with DS answer choices! It's a crappy CD and the book is no better, if you ask me.

I say don't worry about it! In your final day before the GMAT, you should be rested, not take such a long CAT! Conserve your energies for tomorrow and at most lightly review official material.

Good luck and let us know how it went!

thanks for replying me
yeah i know i should be relaxing but im so stressed
that first time i took the gmat i got 300 and i need over 400 to get into the university

i dunno what to do

If you're using Barrons as your primary study guide, then that is your main problem. I wasted two months using Barrons materials. If you are only shooting for over 400, buy either Kaplan Premier or Princeton Review 2010 (or check them out from the library). Another book you may want to consider is the Manhattan GMAT math supplement. It goes over some of the more challenging math material in a basic manner, so if you see an inequality or a roots/exponents problem on the test, you will have a fighting chance to answer it correctly. Good luck.

i dunno why i got Barrons without searching , however, i just had a Princeton free test and i got 430
so i guess i will be ok by tomorrow

Whoever read this plz wish me luck
