Moi pryvitannya!
the final score may vary by 10 , very rarely by 20 points within the same split.
Of course it varies downside.

Sorry to hear that, I know that your timing became excellent and you used proper materials.
Anyway may advise is still the same: if you do well with TOEFL, than come back and get better score.

What is $250? The cost of one extra application. Saving $250 and 1 month of studying is nothing when it comes to $500000. Other things being equal, the higher GMAT, the more chances to get in and even receive a scholarship from a school.

For now, good luck with TOEFL, it is more serious task than many think.

My 7-month long journey has finished today: I took the test for the 3rd time and got 700. Good score? Not really - check my 'progress':

Feb: 690 (47/38) AWA 6
Apr: 710 (49/38) AWA 6 < two months of preparation focusing only on verbal
May: 700 (47/38) AWA ? < one month of preparation focusing only on verbal

Interesting observations:
- the same split 47/38 results in two different scores: 690 and 700
- despite total 7 months of verbal study, my verbal score did not move a dime...

Anyhow, my GMAT journey is over, I'll see you in the TOEFL and applications forums!

Which verbal resources did you use for 2nd and 3rd GMAT attempt?
