First of all, don't feel like something is wrong with you. Many people get a shock on test day because practice exams can't perfectly predict what will happen on test day.
Let's look at the positive side - you have an awesome quant score, so you are half-way there. Your verbal score needs a lot of help and it may take some time to improve.
The new integrated reasoning section isn't a huge deal, but you can't take it lightly. You will want to plan for 20+ hours of prep time for IR.
What is your deadline for taking the test? What is your target score?
Hi KyleWiddison, thank you very much for your reply and encouragement.
I want to submite the MBA application around October this year, so I plan to retake GMAT on 3rd June because I still need 2 months to prepare TOEFL. >_<
I am not an English native speaker. So my limited vocabulary and poor grammar are my fatal weakness. Now, I already start memorizing GMAT vocabulary and using Manhattan SC guide to enhance my correction rate of the SC sector.
However, I have a full-time job. For GMAT, I plan to study 3 hours per weekday and 8 hours every Sat & Sun. Frankly, one month time is very tight for me. Therefore, I want to find an efficient way to improve my GMAT score and sincerely hope you can give some suggestions on the study method.
Thanks again!
