4 days til test - what to do? [#permalink] New post   17 Jun 2009, 05:44
I have four days until my test and my quant score has been declining, my verbal is generally strong although last night's practice test was horrible in both areas. I've gotten a 670/680 on MGMAT, and 650/610 :( on MBAPrep. How much does the logarithm for MBAPrep tests mirror the GMAT? The test I got 610 on I got considerably fewer questions wrong, and I got more correct back to back which would make me think they'd give me harder questions...

Anyway, should I try to find more quant questions to practice on (I've done everything in the OG and OG QR) or should I keep taking MGMAT tests (the only tests left that I have access to)?

I really just want a 670/680, so please advise with that goal in mind.

Mihir - welcome to GMAT Club

You are the third person this week who has 4 days left till the test - must be a magic number of some sorts. Wish you stopped by earlier.

Take a look at this post right here: 4-days-to-go-need-advice-79672.html

I think the best option at this time is to practice taking full length tests and then relax the day before the test. All learning and studying should have been done already - now is the time to save energy before the battle and then go in at 100% of your potential.

one more thing - don't worry about AWA - try to focus on refreshing Verbal and math and spend time reviewing your mistakes.

Good luck on the 23rd!


Thanks a lot mate, it really helped.. i got a 750 on my text, so im pretty happy.. :-D

Wow - we had exactly the same discussion last week: 4-days-to-go-need-advice-79672.html

GMATprep is the most accurate measurement of your GMAT performance. You can check GMAT Score Estimator/Calculator for correlation with other tests, but GMAT Prep is the most accurate.

looks like the way to get a good score is to freak out about 4 days before the test :lol:
