As you guys could see I scheduled my GMAT exam for 22/May and my target score is 740. I have been preparing for the exam for the past 3 months. Pretty sincerely, I should say. My first MGMAT CAT scores were not so great 540.. 540.. 590. After some intense preparation, I decided to take the GMAT Prep CAT 1 hoping that I will get above 650 and thinking may be the MGMAT questions were tough. I took the GMAT Prep CAT 1 yesterday and was really disappointed to see the score - 520.

I really don't want to push my date but I feel there is no way I can reach my target in 3 weeks. It doesn't seem realistic at this point. So, I pushed my exam to 20th NOV. I think I want to focus on my weakness.

Any suggestions on the following 2 -

1. When I compare verbal and math, I am better in Math. I know the concepts, but when it's time to apply them I face a difficulty. Especially with the time constraint in a real exam scenario.

2. I am not sure how to identify my weakness areas in verbal. I know I should put more time in SC but other than that I am not sure what should I do to improve in verbal.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I really want to write a success post with the subject "720 + " like most of the folks in this forum but it looks like it's not going to happen in 3 weeks and I need some help from you people to write such a post.
