Congratulations, crhXilm! You kicked it off with a 560 on your first CAT and a 640 on the real exam, and it seems you didn't have to put that much effort into your preparation! :) You made it seem easy! Good luck with your application! I appreciate that Diego. I promise I really had planned to do m...

Thank you all very much. I actually took the test yesterday and scored 640. I know if I had come here in advance and taken the time to really utilize the abundance of knowledge and experience in this forum, I would no doubt have scored much higher (I don't have the score report in front of me but I'...

Thank you to all who responded. I took my exam yesterday and scored a 640 and my IR came up to an 8 from a 4. I'm sure if I had taken the time to prepare as I really should have, and come here well in advance to utilize your wealth of experience, knowledge, and advice, I could have seen a marked imp...

Thank you all for your feedback! I am VERY excited to get this show on the road, and I'll absolutely keep building on my skills until I get to the actual exam. I've been reviewing my quant section, and have realized that my basic math is extremely rusty/dusty and I would be much more comfortable on ...

I want to improve my Quant Score quickly...

I have not studied for this exam yet. I had planned to but it didn't happen. I took a VERITAS practice exam yesterday and got a 560. I only need a minimum of 400 on the actual exam, but in reviewing the Quant section of my results I realized that my basic math is extremely rusty/dusty and I would be...

Hi crhXilm, 1) Is this the only School that you plan to apply to? Are there other Schools that you would consider if you scored higher? 2) Are you applying for any Scholarships? Rich, 1) Yes, this is the only school I'm applying to. It's a brick and mortar State University with an accredited progra...

Thank you Brent. I'll certainly continue to work on it until the test day, as I know the better prepared I *feel* going in, the less chance that test day jitters will impact me negatively. The test I took was one from VERITAS-I forgot to mention that. Do you happen to know how that assessment stacks...

Need 400 for admission; scored 560 on first practice test...

The school I'm applying to requires 400 for admission. They don't really look at IR or AWA either, so I skipped the AWA for my practice. I looked up some tips and stuff on how to proceed with it on test day, but I do a lot of report writing at my job and was eager to see the other scores, so I did n...
