550 Practice Score

by Dayln » Sat Nov 02, 2013 1:11 pm
Hey guys,

I studied for the GMAT back in April and May but stopped due to going back to school and other priorities at work. Well I started back up again and got a 550 (32Q/34V) on the GMATPrep practice exam. I was fairly happy since I am applying to schools with an average GMAT score of 580 for its students but I want to get around the 600 score so it doesn't hurt me in the selection process. My question is "what is the best strategy to go from here?" I plan to take the GMAT either in mid-December or beginning of January so I don't have a big window to improve I know. I realize that I did horrible in Quantitative so that will be my main concern.

I have the Manhattan GMAT guides and the Official GMAT Review now. Is there anything else that is super helpful?

Thanks in advance.
