Re: 710 (50Q 37V 6 AWA) and Redbull [#permalink]
 06 Oct 2010, 11:04
Congrats for your score and debrief, your debrief is very sincere and helpful.
I quoted the part I want to ask about, You said you studied with Arisotle SC grail and 200 SC questions links direct to man.gmat. I found aristotle sc grail but there is no question and links. Could you please explain how i can find those 200 questions..
Thanks in advance for your time and help
"I used Aristotle's SC Grail (very very useful) and this one other resource the 200 or so GMAT Prep SC questions list - that links to the questions on the MGMT SC forum - extremely extremely useful. For my SC prep, I just read through those 200 Qns and their explanations (Ron Purewal is God) + Aristotle SC Grail + Glanced through MGMT SC"

Congrats Mainhoon. I am also from a similar background as you are (IIT, 8 yrs work-ex, but no PHD  ). I think 710 should be good but looking at your gmat prep scores... i wonder if you were super excited at the test center.. (may be thats why the red bull didnt open and get you super super excited). Nothing can hurt if you get 710 again but I think it will hurt if you get less than 710 ... just a thought! Carry on with your app. You should be good! mainhoon wrote: Well made point Financier.. Yes I will seriously consider, although I also need to work on the apps in parallel, sometimes I feel that too much prep is not worth it, it is ok to just go in with a few weeks worth of study! Financier wrote: mainhoon wrote:
Disappointed with the 37 in V. I was scoring high in the GMATPrep and the MGMT CAT (740-780), so this was a downer.. Anyway, that is what I got. In two minds, whether to retake? It would not make sense to get a 720 on a retake, unless I am sure of 750+ perhaps. But then I was sure of it this time too.. So no telling...
I think if you are truly in the range of 740-780, than go reschedule and get better score. Nothing horrible will happen even if you again end up with 710  (Compared to what could have happened if you did not go and lay yourself that 710 is good enough for Chicago, Wharton, and MIT). Otherwise you will blame yourself all your life for giving up without a struggle ! |

A 780 in MGMAT 6 and 710 in real GMAT, doesn't this point towards a serious problem with MGMATs..?

no it points towards a serious problem with me! I am sure I can beat that 710, but could not do it that day.. MGMAT Q is definitely harder, I survived Q, but bombed V

Hey mainhoon, I found your suggestions really found. I'm planning to take the GMAT in another 1 month but struggling a bit with the MGMAT tests. How would you rate the Quant section of MGMAT because I am hardly able to complete the Quant sections of MGMAT on time.

The q in mgmat is definitely harder than the real thing. But try to finish it, that is important.. I woyld say if you are scoring 48+ in q focus on V. V is where it matters.. Posted from my mobile device

haha just saw this - what an entertaining post! I would have offered a banana to you.
While I also drink Redbull once in a while, I suggest Diet Mountain Dew (in bottled form). It has great taste, 0 calories, not bad caffeine content at 55mg vs. 80mg for Redbull every 8oz, and much safer to open with the twistable cap.
