Need Advice on Test Preparation ( Completed Quant ) [#permalink] New post   26 Oct 2009, 12:29
Hi Guys ,
I need some advice on Test Preparation . I stand now completing 5 Manhattan math strategy guide.Completing MGMAT guides also means covering OG 12 math problems.

took 1 Kaplan CAT ( Math alone) .

21 correct , 16 Incorrect .

Actually 21/31 were Correct and the last 6 I had to guess something as I didnt have enough time . and when reviewing the mistakes half of the problems were simple silly mistakes ( conversion of unit , didnt read the question properly (3 questions) ).

What would you do now ? I have KAPLAN MATH BOOK , but yet to start. Should I move on to verbal or still sit here with some problems ? I dont want to involve in problem discussions , as i might be exposed to practice CAT questions. If I should stay with math , please suggest me some .

I have these CATs, but dont want to use it ( will use it if advised)

Would take the math portion of one of the CAT's and see where you stand - the only way to know. Right/wrong questions don't matter so much on the CAT's, so can't judge based on that.

Hmm.... 36 on Kaplan is probably 40+ on the GMAT Prep - you are getting up there.
Work through the Kaplan Math Workbook that you have and then you can start on verbal. Don't delay your prep or stretch it out over more than 3-4 months.

thanks bb. I have the same thought that I should not prolong . as individual guides occupied little more time .

am fastening the seat belt now.
