Took the exam on tuesday, iam obviously not happy at all with my score. I got this score when i gave the GMAT prep withouth any prepration and after preparing for 6 months i have not moved forward at all. it feels that i have not prepared at all. I am clueless and have no idea how to go forward from here. The Gmat Prep i attemted a few weeks before the exam i scored 680 and i have scored between 660 and 680. I am very dissapointed with my score. I have gone through the MGMAT SC Guide and done the OG questions. I have realised that withouth improving my quant score i may not cross the 700 mark. I need your guidance TMians, people who are good in quant please help, i was really weak in quant and use to fail in mathematics, this happened till class 10. I have slogged in maths and have reached a stage where i was able to solve some problems on this site. I urge all the people who are good in quant to recommend me a book or any technique that you guys can tell me that will help crack quant in GMAT. In quant i am weak in number property, averages. In the verbal section i have major problems in sentence correction.After geting a low score i am still confident that i can break the 700 barrier as i have seen other people do it e.g. TBAY. I need yourhelp guys, please help me crack the GMAT.
