Hello Everyone,

So I haven't studied for the GMAT but took the practice GMAT test to see where I stood/starting point and scored a 440. I am planning to give myself 4 months to prepare myself for the exam. Is this a good number for a starting point as I haven't started studying? I am aiming for a score around 650. Has anyone received this score before starting their studies and were then able to get a score around 650? Any feedback would be great, THANKS!

The 440 is a pretty average starting point. A 650 score is possible, but it will require a lot of work.
Once you take more practice tests later on, you'll be able to gauge your score trajectory.
The good thing is that you have 4 months to prepare.

Cheers,
Brent

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
