Hello All,
To make a long story short... I have been trying for the GMAT for what seems like FOREVER. My first attempt was awful 410. I took the Manhattan Gmat course and was scoring mid 600s on my CAT exams and tried again and got a 530..My biggest issue is in verbal. I have been studying around 15 to 20 hours a week and really really focusing on verbal. I have used all materials that have been suggested on forums. I took a Gmat Prep and got a 550..I need another 30 or 40 points to feel comfortable as the schools I am applying have an average score of around 600. As of right now I am scheduled to take the test on Feb 24th. AM I READY? I feel like I am really really putting in the effort and I am OVER THIS TEST! Thoughts? Any last minute advice? Should I push the test back? I do have some test anxiety and have been really trying to attack that as well. Let me know what your thoughts are....anything at this point would be great!!!!

Considering that you have already used all the material (as you say), 2 weeks time is very less to go from 530 to 600.
I think you should first spend some quality time understanding your weak areas and then should start working on them one by one. there no point in taking GMAT without sufficient preparation. So my honest suggestion is, you should postpone exam and prepare more. If you have too many unsuccessful attempts, your school will definitely ask you reasons.
If you are planning to get into B-school in fall 2011, you have ample of time. Utilize it. This time concentrate more on solving mock exams and learning from your error log.

If you're disappointed in your scores its totally normal be sure to keep in mind that the GMAT is only one part of your whole application! There are also some good online resources you could use to help you study in the homestretch. Finally perhaps your particular study strategy isn't working for you - you may need to change it up and find a style that works for you! Testprepfinder is a great online resource to answer all the GMAT questions you might have. Best of luck to you on the exam.
