Hi
I am not an expert but reading your story two things are quite clear. 1. Time Management. 2. Keeping aside the AWAs during your mock tests.

Keep Rocking,

Hi Stacyp0220
What kind of schools are you looking at? I got a 380 the first time I took the GMAT, and a 440 the second time and I was accepted at Northeastern (1 of 80 applicants).
