My First GMAT SCORE less than 500

Hey, First of all thanks a lot for the reply. But yes , I really want to be the 6th best if at all it is possible. Lack of practice was a mistake , I thought knowing all the strategies would be enough , so concentrated on them . But I did not practice their application on the problems. I'm pretty much confident them i could solve any quant problem , But timing to solve them ?? very poor and bad , sometimes i even take 9 to 10 minutes. though end up with the answer being correct, when i see the clock it is almost 10 minutes, and that makes be very tensed. Plus , Data Sufficiency Awww , i just hate those. Coming on the Verbal part , Since English is not my native language , so you know how it gonna be. Again timing problem for comprehension . At the base , Grammar and vocabulary. Seeing on the whole, Yes i have to do a lot of hard work now. Actually I should start from the Bottom. But I'm ready to Do it . Kindly Help me on this. Before , I did not have any book to study. I used only few videos and online ebooks.

As soon as i reached home after my exam, I have ordered the Official guide of gmat -2016! And i also have the 9th guide - Integrated reasoning and AWA of MGMAT. What else should i buy ? I think there are enough materials in net , SO i 'm not planning to join any classes ??

The reason why i wanted to Quit is , I suppose You might know how most of the Indian I.T companies employees work. Moreover , every week i have alternate shifts and traveling from my home to office is nearly 60 kms ! totally 4 hours a day goes in travel itself
Your words will be helpful to me , thanks

1) When are you planning to apply to Business School? - 2016 applications
2) Do you know what Schools you're planning to apply to? - planning for Canada . McgHill / Alberta / Concordia
3) Assuming that you kept your job, how many hours could you commit to studying during a typical week (over the course of 3 months)? - I almost travel for 4 hours a day (2 hours up and 2 for down). Moreover alternate weekly Shifts. Probably i could use only the weekends Travelling makes very tired and unable concentrate, And Even if i could the I.T job nature shuts my mind

Please help me with a plan that i could use most effectively.
thanks a lot for the reply.

Hi Pradeep,

The amount of time that you have to spend traveling to your job will certainly make all of this challenging, but there are still ways to fit in some studying on a daily basis...IF you're willing to make some adjustments to your daily routine.

Most people do their best 'thinking' early in the day (as opposed to doing that thinking at the end of the day, when their minds are already tired). Could you wake up earlier and study before you go to work? Could you wake up earlier, get to your job early, then study for a bit beforehand?
