GMATPrep scores:need some pointers

by spenck » Tue Aug 12, 2008 11:53 pm
Hi,

I just took a gmatPrep test.And got a score of 550.The breakup looks something like (Q-36,V-29).The number of incorrect que being 16-Q, and 17-V, as reflected in the tool.

The score is obviously disheartening,given the fact that I have been doing much better during my practice sessions(where i follow the practice of timing and scoring for the particular section i am preparing for the given number of questions done).I have about a fortnight to go for the exam.
Pls advice.

Hi Spenck,

You haven't really specified what you are looking for advice on, or what score you are expecting to receive. With such little time before the test, there is not a whole lot you can do. I would suggest focusing on the careless mistakes that you (as well as all of us) make, and training your brain to consciously avoid them. That can be an easy way to avoid a needless drop in your score.
