Hi! 
I have been reading this forum for a few months and I finally decided to register this morning.
Does anyone here know if a new version of the GMATPrep Test-Preparation Software will be released next year?
I have always wondered for how long the current version has been the one available for download on mba.com. Has anyone here ever used a different version from the current one?
I took the GMAT yesterday and got 680 (Q:48/V:35). I was neither happy nor disappointed, but it was obviously not satisfying. Not because of the score, but because I feel that I have not mastered the GMAT at all. I want to feel the excitement of doing really well and of reaching the hardest questions (especially in the quantitative section!). I also think I can score a lot higher because I went through a few funny problems during the test (the employee of the test center took too much time to let me in after the first break, so I lost 1 minute for the quantitative section ; and I really had to go to the bathroom during the verbal section, that made me lost 2 minutes
). However I remained calm and collected but these problems obviously cost me a few points. (Here is a piece of advice for everyone: do not drink at all before or during the test!)
Thus, I am planning to retake the test next year, and it would be nice to be able to train with a new version of the GMATPrep Test-Preparation Software, because it is obviously one of the best tool to get prepared. I could not find any information on this anywhere.
Any advice from any non-native English speakers (I am french) to improve my verbal score would also be appreciated. The sentence correction questions are the hardest of the test in my opinion, especially for a non-native English speaker, because I am not able to "feel" what answer could be right.
Thanks in advance
