GMAT Date (booked or proposed): 2nd week of February Target GMAT Score: 760+ GMATPrep Course: Latest CAT Score (Prep Company): Latest GMATPrep Score: 780 2 weeks ago Other Information: Took the GMAT for the first time last week and scored a 730. I had planned to go through the entire OG13 and 2-4 Preptests before taking the actual test but unfortunately I slacked off and only got through 1/3 of the OG and 1 Preptest before the actual test. Plan to go through the rest of the material, along with MGMAT sentence correction guide since almost all of my errors in verbal was in SC, before a retake. Good luck to all!

I am confused between two approaches. One advocated by Bb of reading GMAT Fiction. Other proposed by GMATNinja that is truckloads of LSAT practice. My instinct says to try both, however only time will tell.

I scored consistently around 49 in quant but around 30's in verbal .... can you please suggest something . Currently I have OG12 , GMAC verbal Review , MGMAT SC and MGMAT CR . Anything else I need to include . Thanx in advance for your help

As of now: I have completed MGMAT study material Please suggest- 1. Which other books I should do to achieve the target? for - Quant - RC - SC - CR - From where can I practice more questions for aforesaid topics? 2. When Should I start taking the tests and how many tests should I take ? 3. Which tests series ( Kaplan/ MGMAT/ or anyother ) would be the best to achieve 700+ score? 4. Any other suggestions or Study plan - i should follow - Keeping in mind - I have couple of months to appear for the tests. Thanks Much.
