Under 48 hours - need a 47 in quant - what to do

So I've finished the OG13 and the QR book. In QR (which I did in the last few days), I got around 79% in PS and 83% in DS. Wrong answers were *fairly* spread out, although of course towards the end I got more wrong.

My plan for tomorrow is:
o Go over my general study notes
o Write down all the important formulas, make sure I've memorized them
o Have another crack at the questions I got wrong, see if I've learnt my lesson
o Read up on what I need to bring to the exam
o Decide on my time management strategy (not checking the clock every question)

I generally feel okay, but still intimidated, despite some pretty fair results. I seem to have cut down on quite a lot of the careless errors that I made in the past.

Have I missed anything? Should 47 in quant be achievable with the overall scores I mentioned in the first paragraph? I got a 47 in my last practice test (not going to do one tomorrow), so I feel it's very much in the balance.

So nervous...

Keep a calm head. And keep an eye on time. That's all :)

Thanks! I'm going through the Magoosh questions that I got wrong - I always felt they were a little harder than the official ones, although that could be psychological.

I've done 40 so far today, with 80% right - I don't seem to be able to get above that percentage. I've noticed some careless errors slipping back in, but I think I'd rather have careless errors than not having a clue how to tackle questions.

I also started practicing with a lap timer app - it's very useful. If anything, it forces me to focus quicker, and I seem to be getting the same %age correct even with the time pressure. I find that much of the time, for every question that takes 3 minutes, there's one that I can do in a minute.

Very nervous now, hope my adrenalin isn't peaking too early. :)

Okay, back to it... *gulp*

I'm assuming that you've already completed several official practice tests (https://www.mba.com/the-gmat/download-fr ... tware.aspx). This is the only effective way to work on your timing. First, the practice tests are computer adaptive, so within a few questions, you will get questions that are just within or outside your range of expertise. This is much different from tackling practice questions one at a time. Also, if you're working on individual practice questions and you happen to spend 10 minutes on a question, you just shrug it off and keep going. On a timed practice test, spending 10 minutes on a question can kill your score.

Remember, the GMAT is a test of your math and verbal skills AND it's a test of your test-taking skills. So, in the next 48 hours, take at least one practice test to work on your time management skills.

If you're interested, we have a free GMAT time management video at https://www.gmatprepnow.com/module/gener ... es?id=1244
