I'm so repressed regarding my current situation. I need a guidance /suggestion regarding how to improve my score to > or -520. It's been almost 2 years I'm trying to get in near by Grad School but I was not able to succeed due to my GMAT score. I moved to US 2 years ago as a dependent spouse. I did my Master's from India (2013).My 1st attempt (was on April 2014) was a big disaster I scored <300 after preparing for 3 to 4 months & studying 3 to 4 hours a day.For preparation I used only printed materials since I cannot afford $$$ on online classes/tutors.I'm planning to retake (applying for Fall 2016) the test.I need a help to improve score .I'm facing huge problem in both sections
1>my 1st problem is i'm from non math
2>not a native speaker
People who are taking test have advantage of either Verbal or Quant .But for me I'm neither good at Quant nor Verbal.I'm feeling frustrated regarding my situation.
Thanks,

Hi shasara,
A score of >520 is certainly achievable and your not being from a Math background or a non native should not play a spoil sport in you achieving the score.
A sub 300 score showcases serious lack of understanding of the basics and fundamentals that are tested on the GMAT.
This shows that you might have not understood the study material properly and just jumped on to solving the problems.
1. What study material did you follow last time?
2. Did you take full length CATs during your preparation?
3. Did you solve the complete
OG?
4. When is the deadline to apply for the B-School that you are targeting?
5. When are you planing to retake the GMAT?
