hi aim, The 30 out of 60 answer you said, was that the math portion total? If so, I thought that there are only 37 questions? I'm confused now, Thanks.

"I am planning on submitting my scores....might take it again...not sure...right now I want to relaxXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXx" jka, I would give it about a week or two then hit the books again. I noticed before that after long weeks of studying the day of the test seems to be where you for...

jka, I'm really relieved that you're done but you said you might just take it again. You should, I believe 3rd is a charm. Now for your results, I'm deeply scared about my own as well. You said 37/37 you didn't know and yet you were able to get 30 correct? That was a lot better than you suspected th...

Stacey,

I know that I need to take practice test to measure my current standing but I tend to loose focus and start to drift away during practice. I ended up guessing a lot knowing that this is only practice and assuming that actual GMAT will be different. That's my problem.

I'm in the same boat but I can't afford these online classes. I'm just not sure that I can get the most out of it unless its actual face to face. I'm having difficulty focusing and remembering the key items. I guess I'll find out in 2 weeks if I prepared enough...

jka,

Let me know how you do. Like you, I only need 500 but I haven't taken GMAT yet. I have exactly 12 days to wing it then if not I will study my butt off. Good Luck!

BTW: How much studying did you do on your first try?

Eve, I avoided math as possible even in high school but now its taking its toll because every entrance exams will be dealt with fundamentals which is my weakest part. I can't afford any prep classes so I'm just sticking with traditional review and studying. How were you doing the entire diagnostic? ...

Scoutkb,

I'm in the same boat now and I'm actually getting better but the problem is trying to understand the question. That area is still grayed out to me. I did take a diagnostic but I just ended up guessing most of them because of frustration.

Thanks Stacey, I guess I'm just trying to boost my confidence a bit. I'm really bad in my arithmetic side but maybe I can get away with data sufficiency even then I'm not even sure I can get a high score with the verbal. I'm thinking of taking the GMAT in 3 weeks just to have a feel for it. Like I s...

Is there a way to score 500 on GMAT with just good verbal alone? Or maybe 10-15 on the Math side? Any help would be appreciated. I guess I'm leaning into the fact that I have weak math background, I mean WEAK! Thanks.

Thanks for the quick reply. Is there a possiblity that before doing this 80 day preparation to get 500 in merely a month? I guess I want to try to study less and hopefully get it then if not I will take the longer approach. Suggestion? Thanks again.

Help! I just need at least 500+

This may sound crazy but I only need at least 500 to get into this certain program but I don't think I can do it. I've been avoiding math ever since high school and my foundations are really weak. Any suggestions on how to get this target score? I'm afraid that I will fail miserably on the math area...
