isti Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Hi, The first time I took GMAT, I scored 530 (Q39, V25). I know I messed up on the verbal because I didn't time myself well. I decided to retake it and I focused both on verbal and quant while preparing again. However i put more emphasis on quant since I knew I wasn't doing really good on it from what I saw on my practice exams My second attempt- I scored 610 (Q39, V34). Now I'm a female electrical engineer, with an undergrad GPA 3.9/4.0. I was among the top 5% percent of my graduating class and I got As on all of my calculus and statistics courses back on school. So, I'm really confused- why am I performing so badly on quant?? I just don't understand, despite going through all the prep materials, focusing on my weak areas and frequently taking practice exams, I continue to score bad on my quant. My target schools are Rotman, Schulich, Rotterdam. Their average GMAT is around 650 and I'm 40-60 points lower. I was wondering, if my good performance on my undergrad calc and statisitcs courses will help to leverage the low quant GMAT score? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
