In my first attempt, I got 480. Now I am trying again. But I have a typical problem. I cannot retain things in my brains. When I prepare for Verbal, I forget basics of quant. and when I prepare for quant., I forget my basics for verbal. I dont know if I have developed a mental stumbling block but something is drastically wrong with my preapration.

Please suggest how should I prepare.

Thanks.

Thanks,

Tekno9000

Repetition may be the key to your preparation. Think about putting your practice concepts/materials on flashcards and do daily reviews. I hope you have downloaded my own flashcards for your own prep right now...

Have you been medically diagnosed with memory retention issues? You may qualify for special treatment during your test, it's worth investigating.

Good luck!

"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."
