GMAT Score:690
Hi guys,

I am taking the Gmat test on Friday 15th of july, 2 days from today. I have taken only 3 of the prep tests. Below are the scores

MGMAT CAT 1 - 700(Q45,V41)
MGMAT CAT 2 - 690(Q47,V37)
GMAT PREP 1 - 680(Q47,V35).:cry: SOB...SOB... I am completely disappointed by this score. Actually aiming for a 720 but now I think I would become happy for receiving a score anything that is >= 700

Anyways, I will be doing a revision of all the topics for today and then will be taking the GMAT Prep 2 in the evening.

However, guys what do you think about my scores, do i stand a chance to win over GMAT i.e 'anything above 700'(for me at this point of time) :cry: :cry:

Dude!,

just go with a positive frame of mind and dont analyse your performance during the test.Handling the pressure in abetter way can easily make or mar the chances of another 20-30 points IMHO.
So just relax and enjoy(as much as you can ;-) ) the test!!

and keep us posted ...
Thanks,
Sandeep

Agreed, calm down!

Also, go in with the aim of scoring 800. Why would you aim for anything else? Whether you get such a score, that's another issue, but that should be your aim.

All the best, I'm sure you'll get that 700+ :)

Score does dip under stress or exertion !!
so relax, brush up on your notes before the exam. Try to recollect your strengths and weaknesses one last time, take a deep breadth and go for it :D

I am sure you ll pass the 700+ mark. Keep us posted !

All the best!

I know someone who scored 40 points more than his highest GMATPrep score (650-> 690). So as other posters said earlier - keep your chin up and do well.

Do let us know how it goes.
