Hey,
I finally made a step and registered to the forum. I took the test yesterday and thought that I will raise some questions regarding my practises. Originally I meant to ask two things in my first post, but than I thought that I will dissect these issues and here just only ask about advices on this following short period.
Okey. So briefly summing up:
I decided to take the test 6 month ago, but I could not really pay attention to the practice in the first three months. Then I decided that I quit my job and started focusing on the preparation solely. I registered to Magoosh, bought the manhattan book series and OG2019 too. In the first two month I was following the three month plan of magoosh, and finished with the lessons. I have never been really strong in math, and actually I did Art as a Bachelor. There were some things from the math lessons I could recall but mainly they were new to me. I tried to follow the Magoosh plan as strict possible spending 6-9 hours a day with studying.
6 month ago when I did not know anything about the test I did a 440 on mba first mock test. Than during the 3 month I did other mba mock tests and manhattan's too. They fell between the 450-550 range. I had a really disappointing test (480) 1 week before the real test. I hired a private teacher too for the last month (march-april) and I did a lots of problems every day. I heard that missing an easy at the test can lead to a sub600 score right away so I decided to focus on the easy problems and in the last few days I pushed mediums too.
When I went for the test I felt that I more or less did all I could in the last three month and I focused to give my best. I ended up with a score of 560 (Q39, V28) which I thought that it is not so disappointing although my highest expectation were 600+ as I am aiming for MIM-s in Europe in the top 30 range. I have good reco letters and experience in various managerial tasks (iam 27 right now). Even though I wanted to apply in April I am thinking of redoing the test and work more on my essays. May is the last deadline so I want to redo the text in 16-20 days.
I thought of the following daily preparation in this 2,5 weeks:
Re-do 15-15 Easy PS/DS daily (Magoosh/404 mba questions/OG)
Do 15-15 Medium too
Do 5-10 Hard (to be able to differentiate)
Do 4-6 RC (Magoosh/OG/404)
Manhatten SC book (heavy load every day)
What do you guys think? Could you please give your opinion on a good alternative for a 50+ increase in 2,5 weeks time?
All the best,
Áron.

You have good scope to improve your in Quant. First review your basics and concepts, then practise topic wise GMATClub questions, later you can with TTP, it would help you alot improve quant score. All the best

Thanks for the advice this TTP seems nice! Probably a review could help also as I have not spend much time with reviewing while put a lots of effort in the initial learning.
