My GMAT Experience
I took my test today I got 620 (44Q 30V), I could get only around 3 hours of sleep last night due to test anxiety. It happened 8 yrs ago during my GRE as well where I scored 2100 after 2 hours of sleep. I thought I was doing well on verbal and pretty sure got 90% of the RC and CRs right but they seemed to be easy ones. Most likely many of my SCs were wrong which meant I got easy questions and hence low score. So it seems that one has to have equally good skills on all the three areas to get good score. Can anyone please throw some light on this.
Preparation
My preparation was around 40 days. 20 days of warmup and very light study basically to get into study mode after such a long break. Took 3 weeks off from work and intense study for 20 days.
I took only one practice CAT (MGMAT 1) about one week before the exam and scored 590.
Books
I have done MGMAT guides 3-4 times and solved OG problems at least once.
Retake
I know I lack real practice and need to take CATs on a regular basis to prepare for the marathon. I need to do 1000 sc's and 1000 CRs. MGMAT math questions bank. Good thing I still have GMAT Prep 1 and Prep 2 which I have not touched yet
I want to be able to score between 700 and 800.
At this point I am completely not sure how to structure my study plan over next month and half after which I plan to give my second attempt.
