Samarg, how much time do you have to your GMAT? Which MGMAT books have you gone over?

Samarg,

i had the same problem as you... my first gmat attempt was horrible 470 Q31 V20's (No studying it was stupid of me waste of $250)..second 640.. third 690 just matters what books you study with

to jump from 470 to 640 i increased my math/verbal using all mgmat books
the mgmat books got my math up to 42-47 on prac tests
verbal to high 20's

to make that jump to a 690 i highhhhlyyy recommend powerscore books
CR LSAT BIBLE (After reading this book 2x i rarely missed a CR problem)
SC Bible (Every rule you could possibly think of)
*For reading comprehension readdd the wall street journal and analyze it for better comprehension skills ask yourself what is the authors tone, what is the main point, etc..*

these two books plus WSJ brought up my verbal from 27-29 to 41!!!!

I just think ur math is great, 43 is not bad brush it up do those harder problems shoot for 45+... In verbal get those two books from powerscore and ull do just fine if you master them I dont see how you cant score in the 30s or higher...
