Please advise

by parulmahajan89 » Sat Sep 28, 2013 3:42 pm
Hi
I have been preparing for almost month and a half. I was feeling I know concepts and getting gist of it.I am not sure if it is my last mock which put me down as I scored 500. But I feel kind of blank and not so confident about approaching problems.

Also time constraint seems to be another factor. I am not sure if I should schedule exam in October?

Please advise

Thank you
Parul

What's your target? Is it close to where you've been scoring?

I'd encourage you to read a few articles which may help you figure out how 'close' you are.

Hi Parul,

In addition to answering the question about what your goal is, you should also consider:

1) How you've been scoring on your other practice CATs?
2) Are you on a deadline? If so, can you adjust your plan to allow you more time to study?
3) What resources have you been using to study?
