I started around 490 as well... right now I'm in about 640-650 range (most times) really hoping to break the 700 ceiling...

Thanks a lot for that!

It gives me a lot of encouragement because I had been studying Quant for two weeks before taking the Prep 1 test, and I scored a horrible 430 :( My quant skills are terrible and there is no way in hell I could afford to get tuition and most books.
