Hello All,
I took a mock on the official website and scored 570
1. Quants was easy for me, scored 47, even though I had two questions and 5minutes left.(Due to some technical glitch, the quants section got over before time
)
2. Verbal was a DISASTER, got a score of 23
It's been almost 10 days since then, I have been prepping diligently for Verbal.
1. I have gone through Manhattan RC and CR guide and I can see that I am improving. My timing is too bad though, on an average I end up consuming 4-5minutes on RC and CR question. SC is fine for me, as I go through the rules, I kind of get it right 90% of the times.
2. I have also been doing questions from OG and Magoosh and I see that I am improving but I can never do it within time. Either I take 4-5 mins to get a correct answer or I end up marking wrong
Need some advice.. What would you guys suggest should be my preparation strategy?
I am planning to take my GMAT by Oct mid-end and I would really need a score of around 720 atleast
Does that seem possible or will it be way too hard to get to that?
PS: I am a working professional, I can squeeze out 6hrs a day on weekdays and I'd have entire Saturdays and Sundays
Planning to apply for ISB in R2
HELP PLEASE
Thanks in advance

it seems that you're in right track, but the problem is in time management. The time management is not the matter at all; it's all about the practice. if you think that your concept is perfectly fine then just apply your concept learning to the official questions (use only official questions for verbal and go for unofficial too for quant part).
if you wish to improve your concept learning go to ''Thursdays with Ron'' videos. Check my signature below, please...
