Re: A very painful experience

Hi Shadow, I too got a score of 490 which was totally unexpected. I have heard from many people that schools see the amount of improvement you have shown between two attempts.

More weightage for RC in GMAT?

I heard from my friend that in GMAT, RC carries greater weightage than CR and SC. Is that true?

He said that in GMATPrep, he got only 1 wrong in RC, 4 in CR and 7 in SC and still got a score 41 !

This may sound silly, but I am worried because RC is my weakest area :cry:
