I just took the Gmat on sat and received a 480 and am very disapointed. What should I do next. take it again and what should I study. I already took the Kaplan class, used information on this site and also looked at the OG11. Previous to this I was getting a consistent 550 in my Kaplan Cats and also the Cat from MBA.com. I am not looking to get a 700 just something from 550-600. What should be my study plan? private tutoring? just a take a few weeks and restudy the material and take the test again? Keep my fingers crossed and put in my applications explaining that Im not the best test taker and hopefully my work experience and essays will get me in? help!!!
I would think about re-taking the test--it's perfectly fine to do so. If your target score is a 550+, I think it's reachable from your current performance.smoriginal wrote:I just took the Gmat on sat and received a 480 and am very disapointed.

The first thing you need to do is put a solid study strategy together. Spend some time looking through my GMAT blog, https://beatthegmat.blocked to see what one successful strategy could look like. Also, take a look at the Beat The GMAT Resource Wiki for other great study resources, https://www.beatthegmat.com/scholarship/
Best of luck!
