Congratulations!!

Your debrief is such a motivation . Consistent hard work does pays off.

The part where you have shared how you improved your RC score by reading science books on heavy topics will be helpful for me. Even I am an avid reader but when it comes to RC I usually select the second best answer and do the question wrong. I will now implement your strategy and will work on it. :)

Good Luck!

Congratulations mate! I started around December too, haven't been able to reach 700 yet. How much were you scoring towards the end of your prep in GMAT mocks?

Congratulations my friend.
You deserve every ounce of that score.

The fortitude and grit you have shown after your first attempt is estimable.
If your essays are half as novel,erudite and esoteric as your chatroom comments then I have no doubts that you ARE gonna get into your dream program.


To everyone who visits this page and reads this debrief => Going from 350 to 700 is 10x times more arduous and byzantine then from say 650 to 750.
We all have so much to learn from this guy.


Cheers
Stone Cold



I agree completely!

This is brilliant!! Congratulations!! . How many months did you take to reach your goal score? I am attempting my exam on November 16 and on the same boat hovering around 350-400 and aiming to score 700. It would be great if you could share your study schedule in detail and materials you used. Maybe my story could be your journey part 2 :)

One of the most inspiring stories I have read :o :o :o :o :o - I hope you succeed in your applications as well, the business world surely needs people like you! I cannot mention how assuring and bolstering this debrief is. Thank you for sharing your determined journey, for those of us who belong to the district 12 of the GMAT (i.e. 350-400-500 region), it is wonderful to read this! :D :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Hello Friend,

Am quite inspired by your short debrief. Many congrats for your great gmat score improvement!!! I am in the same position as you were at 350. Last month I gave my gmat and scored a drastically low score of 330 due to certain unavoidable circumstances. In the exam centre, I had literally faced trouble with marker pens which distracted me a lot

However, GMAC has offered me with some discount if I reappear again. I would like to listen to your complete debrief of score improvement to 700. Kindly provide me the same so that I can get encouraged for my reattempt. Thanks.

Regards
Allora

Thanks for such an inspiration! I love your debrief/whatever you call it :) honestly all the ‘750 first attempt blah blah’ really brought me down and at some point i just stopped visiting the gmat sharing experience section.
Thanks again & congratssss

Truly an inspiring debrief! Wow you faced some seriously hard questions on your test! I had a Q47 with fewer 'difficult' questions.
