Please help me understand what level I'm on. I would like to get 700.
Unfortunately, we don't have enough information about you to provide a reliable answer. As nktdotgupta pointed out, the most accurate indicator of one's actual level is the GMATPrep. Remember, though, to take the GMATPrep CATs under test conditions (time limits, at a desk, don't skip AWA, etc.). While reviewing guidebooks and practicing
OG questions are essential ingredients to success, these activities are not the same as taking a test.
On a side note, it's good to see that you're concerned and doing something about it. But just make sure not to become too freaked out. Remain calm and in control at all times. Your friend's experience, while unfortunate, does not doom you to the same fate.
Thanks for replying (to the other person as well). I took a test, not the gmatprep because I wanna save it for the end, but I took one online and I realise I'm in a MAJOR crisis. I don't know what to do. 3 months of preparations and I'm still only around the 500 mark.
I made an
error log and I'm getting stuff wrong in every category. But I'll list 2 major problems I have.
1. I'm making the most errors in number properties. I wasn't comfortable with any of the topics really. I thought percents, work rate, distance time, sets were all my strengths but I am getting many of them wrong as well and not only am I getting them wrong, but I'm also taking too much time doing those questions. So double whammy. Loss of time AND getting them wrong. All this after 3 months. I'm defo doing something wrong.
2. I have realised my basics suck. Mostly in number properties, statistics and coordinate geometry. How do I get thorough?
I did well ONLY in sentence correction. Got 90 percent correct.
I have 1 month and I'm willing to put in upto 10 hours everyday. I just do not know where to start and what to cover and how. I would have taken up some professional coaching but I'm broke so I hope there is another way of getting better at this.
I don't want to set unrealistic expectations (750 and all) but I'd like to get 650+ because I believe that is my range.
