50 points in 10 days?

I don't think you need that. $2000 is too much to spend on GMAT prep imo. Also, your target score can easily be achieved through the above mentioned resources, just go step by step. But then again, if you need some guided prep, here are some amazing test prep courses you can consider for a month
you can try empower gmat https://gmatclub.com/coupon-codes-and-d ... nt?fl=menu which includes both quant and verbal as well as express study plans. do check it out i guess they have a free trial.
Or you can try https://gmatclub.com/coupon-codes-and-d ... nt?fl=menu for a month's time but it's just for quant. Remember, Quant and CR can be worked upon and improved in shortest possible time.
Here's a list of free trials you can utilize:

Hi NivenProfido,

To start, it's worth noting that to hit 470 on the GMAT, you do NOT need to correctly answer ANY questions that you think are too hard or too weird (so quickly 'dumping' those questions - so that you will have more time to spend on all of the other questions - would be a good idea). In addition, you are remarkably close to a 470+ right now, so you do NOT need to significantly improve in all areas to earn that Score.

Before I can offer you the specific advice that you’re looking for, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on your timeline and your goals:

1) When you say that you "need" a 470, what does that mean exactly? Will that Score guarantee you entry into a particular Program (and if so, then how do you know that?)?
2) What application deadlines are you currently facing?
3) Have you actually scheduled your next attempt yet (for 10 days from now) or do you have the flexibility to schedule it for a bit later?

In my research I've seen that there is not too much on the prep on the IR section. On the exam, the reason I did the worst on this section was and wasn't able to reach my score was because of timing issues, I ran out of time and had to blind guess on the last 3-4 questions. What can I do to best prepare for this section?

Thanks again

Hi NivenProfido,

You are in an interesting spot because you are very close to your score goal; however, since you scored 450, you clearly need to improve your foundational GMAT quant and verbal skills. I think that despite having just 10 days, you still need to follow a study plan that consists of linear learning and topical practice. In other words, learn a particular topic, and then practice that topic until you’ve gained mastery. I realize that you won’t be able to get through all of the quant and verbal topics, but at least you can ensure that whatever you study, you’ll really understand. My fear is that if you rush through all of GMAT quant and verbal, you’ll just tread water for 10 days and not make any significant improvements.

Hi NivenProfido,

Most Business Schools do not place much importance (if any) on an Applicant's IR Score, so you should not be focusing on that section during this next phase of your studies.

In my prior post, I included a few questions - and the answers to those questions are quite important to helping you to properly plan out how to use your remaining study time:

1) When you say that you "need" a 470, what does that mean exactly? Will that Score guarantee you entry into a particular Program (and if so, then how do you know that?)?
2) What application deadlines are you currently facing?
3) Have you actually scheduled your next attempt yet (for 10 days from now) or do you have the flexibility to schedule it for a bit later?
