Hi everyone,
Hoping you guys can help me plan my study regimine for the next three weeks until I take the gmat for the second time. I recently took the offical test and scored a 710 (Q46 V41), but am retaking because in my last practice test before the exam I scored a 730 (Q49 V41).
Here are the results from my ESR:
Verbal
CR - 91st percentile
RC - 84th percentile (though in my last practice test I only missed one RC, so this may be an anomaly)
SC - 96th percentile
Quant
PS - 72nd percentile
DS - 53rd percentile (again, not sure if this is an anomaly since typically DS and PS were about the same in my practice tests)
Arithmetic- 71st percentile
Algebra/Geometry - 57th percentile
I think it's fairly obvious I should focus more on algebra/geometry/DS, while still continuing to drill arithmetic/PS. I have the following resources to use for the next three weeks:
- GMAT Club
- Magoosh
- OG2017 (all Verbal questions have already been completed, and most of PS and DS)
- Quant 2017 - most of PS has been completed, still quite a bit of unanswered DS questions in this book
- Verbal 2017 - all questions answered already
- GMAT Prep Question Pack - just purchased, so these are all fresh
- Exam Pack 2
Given the above background, do any of you have any suggestions on how I should allocate my time? I can dedicate 2 hours/weekday and about 3 or 4 hours each Saturday and Sunday between now and the test.
Thanks!

Seems clear that quant is the section to focus on. GMATClub is probably the best place to hone that. In my opinion GMATClub and OG and GMATPrep should be enough.

Don't focus solely on algebra/geometry. Continue to work on your strengths as well and just improve on your timing and test taking strategies. Test a few tests to see where you can improve i.e. silly mistakes and questions that take longer than normal (2mins). Practice those.
