So I need a little help. I'm retaking the GMAT on Saturday and the anxiety is starting to build up. I need some advice.
To start off, my first attempt at the GMAT didn't go too well. I have been mainly using
MGMAT and
OG for studying. Here's my performance on my CATs leading up to my exam:
630 - 40q, 36v (
MGMAT)
690 - 45q, 40v (GMATPrep)
620 - 40q, 35v (
MGMAT)
630 - 47q, 30v (GMATPrep)
First test day - 590 - 36q, 35v
I was pretty shocked to see that I scored a 36 in quant on the actual exam. I didn't think that I was killing the exam, but thought I would for sure score in the 40s.
So over the last few months I have been working hard on quant doing a lot of problems and analyzing my weaknesses. I believe that I've made some good improvement. Here's the scores from my last three CATs.
650 - 44q, 35v (
MGMAT)
700 - 48q, 38v (GMATPrep)
680 - 48q, 34v (GMATPrep)
I'm targeting a 660 score, so I've been please with my results over the last few weeks. HOWEVER, I now have this building fear that I think that the GMATprep quant sections are easier than the actual exam. You can see that I score best on the quant sections from the GMATPrep software. Is there any truth to this, or am I just freaking myself out prior to my test?
When it comes down to it, I do feel more prepared this time around. I'm just terrified that I'll finish the exam again and see another sub 600 score.
What do you all think???
