530 to 650!

by Jgarza1984 » Sat Apr 02, 2016 10:02 am
Hey guys! I am stunned by my score. I'm working full time and just had my third baby, so study time is tough to find. I buckled down for the last month or so and studied a lot! I was able to improve 120 pts from my first attempt last year.

On the official GMAT prep test I got a 600, and on the free Manahattan practice test I got a 610. Not sure if that's an indication of their difficulty or if I just happened to show up this morning.

My goal was 600 so I'm extremely happy. Thanks for the site and all of the helpful information! Good luck to everyone else.
