DrDre Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Hey Guys! I am sort of all drained out on my GMAT studies. I have been putting some serious efforts in getting a good score. However, I am just not able to crack that 650+ for the mocks!!! :( The problem with me I have seen is that I can't do very well under time pressure. Also, I tend to loose focus after an hour or so during the GMAT tests (mock). As a result, I get decent in Q (45+), but V (max 30) goes for a complete spin. By the time I reach the Verbal section, my brains almost freeze!!! For Q I seem to mess up due to time pressure. After the mocks, when I try to analyze the questions where I went wrong, I seem to solve most of them without much effort!!! During my preps, while practicing the OG, I do well in the Q, SC, CR as well RC. My CR is good during my practice on the OG. Out of about 10, I get about 8 right most of the time. But when it comes to the mocks, I just can't get things right. The same is with the RC as well. I am in a sort of deadlock on how to proceed. I have given about 3-4 mocks (GMATPrep software), but scores just don't seem to match my hard work!!! :( Any tips/inputs/suggestion with be of great help! Cheers!

DrDre Posted September 16, 2013 Author Share Posted September 16, 2013 Needed some help - Those guys who are consistently getting 700+ for their mocks on the GMATPrep software......anyone who could share the stats of their results ? I mean....for the Q and V, how many DS problems were correct, how many RC were correct ....etc. ? This would help me in analyzing where I need to focus in order to improve my scores.

DrDre Posted September 17, 2013 Author Share Posted September 17, 2013 Guys, From those who have been getting 700+ on the GMATPrep software, can anyone help me by sharing the analysis of their results in terms of: 1. How many DS questions they got right/wrong ? 2. How many PS questions they got right/wrong ? 3. The same for RC, CR and SC ?? It would help to understand where I am going wrong and where I need to focus! Thanks in adv , V Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruthevans41 Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Practice is the key for success in Gmat, try to solve as much as mock tests you can. Set a fixed timetable for your studies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDre Posted October 4, 2013 Author Share Posted October 4, 2013 Practice is the key for success in Gmat, try to solve as much as mock tests you can. Set a fixed timetable for your studies. Thanks Ruth. I have trying to answer some mocks, but I am not able to get how the scoring is done. I just answered a mock and my score was a disappointing 530 (Q:39, V:24). The last time I got 540 (Q:40, V:24). I tried to analyse where I went wrong in my tests, but I don't seem to get a hang of things. For the test that I scored 540 (Q:40, V:24), I got 12 wrong on the Q and 21 wrong on the Verbal. But for this test, I did not manage to complete the Q on time due to which I could not answer the last question. So I guess the low score was due to the fact of not completing on time. Now, for the test that I scored 530 (Q:39, V:24). I got 21 wrong on the Q but only 13 wrong in Q. I am not surprised at the low Q score, but what surprises me is that V still DID NOT change!!!!! So I am not sure where do I need to improve on the Verbal!!!! Please help me guys. If anybody can share some stats of their GMAT mocks (GMATprep) , would be great. Cheers!
