Hey GMAT Clubbers,
My journey started with 700 (Q50/V35)-much lower than the coveted 99th percentile. RC was my Achilles heel (63rd percentile), while CR was not great either (77th percentile). Time pressure got the best of me on test day, leading to some rushed guesses at the end.
Round Two- 730: Progress, But Not Perfection. Went back for round two, focusing on RC timing. I improved my Verbal score to a 39, with Quant remaining steady at a 50The dream score (that sweet 99th percentile) felt just out of reach.
Enter GMAT FE and the e-GMAT
I felt mastery of CR is required to help me get to that 99th percentile level.That's when I discovered e-GMAT. Their targeted approach and "Last Mile Program" were game changers. Under the last mile programme, I was assigned Rida as a mentor She helped me understand my weak areas and devised a targeted plan to help me reach my target score.e-GMAT's CR approach: Pre-Thinking. Learning to prethink, before diving into the answer choices made a world of difference. This strategy, along with Rida's targeted strategy, is a big reason I crushed the Verbal section and reached the 99th percentile.
Beyond CR: DI Mastery
While CR was my Everest, I can't say enough good things about e-GMAT's Data Interpretation (DI) course. Finding good DI resources is tough, and their program was fantastic. It equipped me with the tools and techniques to tackle complex questions.
The Mock Exam Grind
Throughout my prep, I religiously took all the official mocks from MBA.com 12 days before the actual exam. These were invaluable for getting a feel for the real test experience and identifying areas for improvement. My scores- (665, 695, 705, 735, 745, 685, 725). An important realisation from these mocks was that the room for error in quant was negligible. 1-2 mistakes could push your score down to the mid 80s.
Shoutout to the GMAT Community!
A huge thank you to the amazing GMAT Club community – Bunuel, GMAT Ninja, and Karishma_anaprep, you guys rock! Your insights and explanations on the forum were lifesavers for solving countless doubts. Plus, the GMAT Club forum quiz and error log were celestial, keeping me on track and helping me learn from my mistakes.
Advice:
Identify Your Weaknesses and devote time accordingly: Spend more time on your weak areas rather than devoting equal time to all areas. When, you start off, start by gauging your level of expertise in each area by taking a mock.Devote more time to weaker areas.
Adapt Your Strategy: Don't be afraid to adjust your approach based on your progress. The CR technique of elimination did not work for me. Pre-Thinking did.
Remember,what works for one person might not work for another.
Simulate test taking environment: Take plenty of mocks (recommended official mocks only) before the test and approach the actual test as if it were just another mock.
Feel free to ask any questions in the comments or on PM! Happy to help anyone on their GMAT journey.
