fitzgerald thanks for taking your time and asking these questions. In fact, I have one answer on all the questions. I was reading the questions, then I read all answers and made my selections. For RC accordingly, I read passages by noting key words and keeping an eye on suspicious statements. I was ...

@atul, I am not an expert BUT decided to reply based on my post-GMAT experience. There's no way for GMAC to correlate its own test with ETS designated Toefl ibt. Here's my view - >> I am convinced that PTE is much better option for one taking the GMAT exam. If you score sufficiently on PTE and, in c...

Disagree, as the note above has put a qualification on the verbal skills measured by GMAT within the score diapason 30+. The statement lacks evidence or the evidence...

fitzgerald thanks for sharing your prep and exam experience with me and fellows at BTG. I think there was no over-analysis on my side.

I am only trying to reconcile my verbal abilities by matching the pre-exam progress and general aptitude levels ...

I screwed up my verbal with 16 again!

I wonder if an algorithm of the GMAT exam has changed, as it is highly unlikely for me to get the score of 16 in verbal in English test, even if it is GMAT and the weight-score is attached differently from other verbal tests. I speak out this paradox, as I have been testing myself continuously with ...

@cvsatish: considering your prep track - and certainly score, I conclude you've got talent for standardized tests. This special gift for some people makes not attainable the plans you're discussing here, i.e. retake. If you can boost your score - why not to give it a try? If your score won't increas...

you are gonna end up the same score, unless you put full stop on all your studying right now! imagine you don't buy my advice and continue studying - OK ... then in two days don't complain if the score is mid to high 400-s. you have studied enough and let it go, have a sleep, call your family, meet ...
