Hello,

I attempted GMAT thrice and scored a 47 on all occasions. Even though I scored 49/50 in Quans on most of my practice tests, I am unable to cross 47 on the real exam. During the exam I was confident that I will atleast score a 49, but for some reason I am unable to cross 47. I used MGMAT Quans Guides, OG 13, OG Q2 materials for prep. What other practice material can I use to get a score of 50 or 51?

Thanks,
C23678

I've found Manhattan Gmat's challenge questions the most helpful. It can get really hairy, you definitely need a lot of practice and keep your cool, but if you can get them right 60% or more (on average) on those challenge questions within 2:00 each, you should be good to go for a 50/51 on the Quant section.

I think it's more fundamental though, to ask - why are getting questions wrong? Timing? Some problems too hard? Silly mistakes?

If you want a 50/51, you really need to address every possible issue, since there's not a lot of room for error.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
