Considering there are 489 odd posts on this thread till date, lets say 489 people getting above 700 out of a total of people who viewed the post 134288 till date, but many people would have viewed this post many times,say 3 times each, if we divide 134288/3= 44762.
So 489 / 44762 x 100 = 1.1 % approx. would be a rough estimate...
Disclaimer: i am not yet among the 489

First of all things, the best advice you would ever hear about cracking GMAT would be to relax and be the happiest person on earth before you give the exam. No matter what anyone says, the clarity of mind to think nothing else but the question in front of your screen is what will get you through. You would've learned up the formulas of math and rules of grammar but all it takes is little bit of common sense and lots of luck (no denying that).
CrackVerbal helped me kick start my preparation. Sessions on Sentence Correction, especially, helped me a lot to get my concepts right not in terms of grammar but in terms of what GMAT tested. Although I didn't get a great verbal score, but I probably would have found it much harder to get that without CrackVerbal's help. Overall, my preparation for CAT and inherent love for Math helped me get a decent score in Quant.
In terms of preparation, to be honest, I didn't really prepare hard. I used to just give mocks time to time and analyze them to the smallest detail. I had given myself 3 months to prepare, but overall I think I didn't spend more than a month. It just proves its not the number of months you put, its the number of hours you've actually studied that matter.
I was very superstitious and wore blue the day I wrote my exam. That's about it.

Don't have a debrief, but I would say what helped me the most in my 3 month preparation was taking two mock exams in two weeks leading up to the test today. That allowed me to really focus in and hone in my quant; while I could have done better on verbal in the real thing, I'm happy with the result. It's time to rock the apps now =)

GMAT Prep Material: GMAT Official Guide (edition 12 and 13) Yes, they're practically the same, but going through the books cover to cover worked for me. I also used the Manhattan GMAT practice tests. Those tests are RIDICULOUSLY difficult, especially the math. It made for a great stress test, and the Verbal sections were pretty comparable to the actual material on the GMAT. The GMAT practice tests from the mba website I used 2 weeks prior to the test. Scored 670, and 680 on the official practice tests, and on the Manhattan GMAT I scored in the 640-690 range. Need any more info, holla!
