Hi ,

Here is my previous experience on the GMAT which I took in Nov11

really-disappointed-122743.html

The latest one I took today and I scored a 680 (49,33). I will write up detailed prep plan , but honestly speaking I am still not satisfied with the score. I was expecting a 700 min but ended up 20 points short. Will really have to weigh my chances in the schools mentioned in my profile :(

Arithmetic series gives 730.
Geometric series gives 733.97 round down to 730.
=> Definitely 730.

Have you considered taking the Knewton course? I got a 680 (49Q, 34V) and then decided to take the course because of their 50 pt. improvement guarantee. It worked and I got a 730 (48Q, 42V) just 6 weeks later.

Good luck!

Are you sure about the courses such as Knewton , e-gmat , etc. The courses offer money back but I think terms and conditions are something you cant get away with , just my thoughts
