I appeared for GMAT thrice

1st attempt-550 (Verbal-25 Quant-40) AWA-5.5
2nd attempt-560 (Verbal-27 Quant-35) AWA-5.5
3rd attempt-690 (Verbal- 40 Quant-40) AWA-6

TOEFL- 116/120
Reading-28
Listening-30
Speaking-28
Writing-30

GMAT:

In both my 2nd and 3rd attempts i found that 1st 5 questions were tough and it took me almost 18 min to solve them.
Last 10 Questions- Easy-I could solve them within 15 min

Quant:
Focus on Algebra & Co-ordinate Geometry

Verbal:
Focus on CR

CR-Tough
SC-Easy
RC-Manageable

1000 SC & 1000 CR-Highly recommendable for practice

Day before the test-
Sleep Well, relax

During the test-
Keep your stress low because that will affect your score

Regards,
Vijay N Thakkar
