GMAT Private Tutor?

by Meriwether7 » Sun Jul 07, 2013 1:14 pm
Hi there.

I have couple of days left until my official exam - now scoring within 650-700 range. Do you recommend to hire a private tutor for couple of hours to address some of the potential weaknesses? anyone had any experience with that? any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi Meriwether7,

A tutor may or may not make a difference in the last few days before an exam. My opinion is that it will make little difference because you have a set way of doing things that will take more time than a few days to alter.

Instead, do a light review of all the concepts that you know. Take a good look at both the things that you can do and those that you can't. If a question is too hard or too weird, then don't waste your time on it. Instead, make sure that you put your emphasis on correctly answering questions that you CAN answer. Focus on removing as many silly mistakes as possible. Those mistakes are the things that are costing you your missing points.
