I have taken the GMAT officially 3 times:
September 2013- 450
March 2014 - 530 (Quant 35, Verbal 28)
June 2014 - 570 (Quant 28, Verbal 35)
I took my first test in September with only studying a little bit by myself and I wanted to get a baseline for my score. Then in December I took the Kaplan On Demand Course and I took all of the practice test consistently scoring in the 550-600 range. After getting my second score of a 530 I took the Kaplan course again trying to focus on my weakness of verbal (sentence correction and critical reasoning). After taking more practice tests I was consistently getting 600 with my quant score being 42-45 and a verbal score of 30-35 depending on the week.
Now that I have taken the test for the third time I am stumped on what or how to study. I did better on the verbal than I thought I would but a lot worse on my quant which I thought was my strength. I have thought about purchasing the bundle from GMAT (https://www.mba.com/us/store/store-catal ... ction.aspx) is that my best bet? I feel like I am close to getting my target score I just need an extra push.
Any ideas or experience would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers
