Hi Folks
I need your advice….
I scored 630 (Q35 V41). As you can see I performed poorly on the quant, in fact, what is really annoying is that my average is 39/40 on quant, and on my last GMATPrep before the test I scaled 43! So I screwed up on quant. I think if scaled my average on quant, at least, I would have walked out with 650/660… I think
The reasons are numerous, Actual quant was harder then in OG and GMATPrep, test centre stuffy I was hot and took a while to adjust my layers (mid section), scrap paper in London is rubbish (dirty form continuous reuse, unbound, A4 with 25% of each side, yes each side of every sheet covered with test centre logo etc etc), I was also poorly advised not to focus on Geometry ( I ended up getting 7 or 8 Geometry question, including first), and so on….all led me to uncharacteristically panic and to continuously think about cancelling the test there and then!
Why am I mentioning this, because I have a dilemma?
Do I let it out of my head and freshen up – say a couple of months (I have been preparing for several months and sick of GMAT) - then hit the OG books thus with answers forgotten (currently recognise answers simply by reading half a question - particularly verbal) or do it anyway and look at other material too - particularly with Verbal I would prefer more challenging stuff, any suggestions?
But the key question is timing? (I will be applying in 2010/11)
Thanks in advance
