H Gmatclub members,
First, I'm a non native speaker. Second, I will take my fist GMAT exam on Sep 13th, and I'm little bit nervous about the exam. My target score is passing 500, which is the minimum requirement for getting a scholarship from my office. I've been studying for 1 month, and while I see some improvements I still have fear that my actual score will be below 500. Here's my prep score
1. 7/14/2016: 410 (Q30 V17) GMATPrep
2. 7/21/2016: 480 (Q33 V23) GMATPrep
3. 7/28/2016: 500 (Q32 V27) GMATPrep retake
4. 8/4/2016: 480 (Q32 V25) Magoosh
In the last two days, I've been intensely study more than 12 hours a day, and I feel my skill is improving especially in quant. Since I only have 2 more days left to study before exam, I plan to study the quant topics that usually appeared on GMAT: which are arithmetic and algebra. For verbal, I study CR and RC from Kaplan's book (I've been studying SC since the beginning).
Could you give me advice what should I do effectively in 2 more days before exam? Should I take another simulation test or focus on topics that has greater chance to appear? I fear that my verbal will be below 27 (the highest point from my past simulation), and dragging the overal score to below 500. My target is Q35 V30.
I can't reschedule the exam because the deadline for admission is Sep 16th, so this is my only chance so that I can apply for scholarship from my office. I will definitely take another exam on later days but I want to secure the chance to get scholarship first and the school later (maybe around 2017).
Thanks,
Irwan.

Sorry to be honest, I see no hope for you! It is always bad to squish everything 2 days before and your brain is highly unlikely to process it all. A 500 Score won't even be enough to get you into any scholarship programm, so I would give you the tip to apply for round 2 or wait for 1 year and do it again. Trust me your GMAT Prep Score really reflects what you are currently capable of and thats in your Case, around 480-490.
Try to study hard another year and reach 650+. Remember that 550 is the MEAN Score, so you would not even hit the mean with a low 500 score.

Hi Irwan,
With a score goal of 500+, you're in position to achieve that goal. However, you should not try to do too much during these last 2 days of study (do NOT take any practice CATs and do NOT 'cram'). A bit of light review is fine, but you should try to get some extra rest; you will be better served by going into Test Day calm, well-rested and ready to work (than if you do too much studying now and go into Test Day tired). With your score goal, you do not need to correctly answer ANY of the hard/weird questions, so the smartest move you can make when you see something that you think is too tough is to dump that question immediately (just take a guess and move on).

Thanks for your suggestion. I will definitely take another gmat in the future, BUT the reason why I still want to take gmat this week is to get 500+ score so I can apply for scholarship from my office. If I get the scholarship, my office will asked me to apply to schools of my choice. From then I will study harder to get 600+ score.
