Hi All,

Took my GMAT today and scored 720 (Q: 49, V :40). I took my final practice test (GMAT Prep 2)last week and scored 720.

Here are my practice test scores :

GMAT Prep 1 : 670 (3 months ago)
GMAT Prep 1 (Retake) : 730 (1 month ago)
MGMAT CAT 1 : 620
MGMAT CAT 2 : 690
MGMAT CAT 3 : 690
MGMAT CAT 4 : 720
MGMAT CAT 5 : 680
GMAT Prep 2 : 720 (1 week ago)

Real GMAT 720 (Q: 49, V :40) (Today)

The Quant was easier than the MGMAT CAT but verbal was of almost the same level of difficulty.

Wishing you all the best.

Hi .. First of all congrats for your stellar performance in GMAT. I need some guidance as also preparing for GMAT & planning to take on 15th jun i.e. have nearly 2 months.

Yesterday, I have taken Peterson CAT w\o AWA my score was 600 (Quant-41 & Verbal- 30). Is 2 months sufficient to
cross 700+ score in final GMAT. I have planned to fininsh followings

MGMAT Books SC & CR
MGMAT Maths Books
Nove Maths Books
OG 11 & 12
RC, SC & CR 1000 Series practice questions
Kaplan Books
Planning to take atleast 15-20 mock tests before final exam
If find time then try to finsih Powerscore CR Bible also before exam

I have decided to put avg 8-10 hrs per day for next 2 months.


Is this sufficient for preprations ??? How much time span you have taken to reach final score of 720 & what are major
resources or books used for preprations. ???

Plz do reply as will enhance my preprations level as well as morale. Thanxs
