Re: Advice needed. From 760 average on practice tests to 710 on actual [#permalink]
Hey Neehal,

First of all congratulations on the score!

I wanted to know whether Manhattan tests are a good source to prepare for Verbal?

Any advice would be helpful.

Any advice ? 760 average on all 6 official GMAT practice tests to 710 on actual exam.

GMAT practice tests:
#1 - 760 (Q49,V46) 7/19
#2 - 730 (Q50,V40) 7/21
#3 - 750 (Q50,V42) 7/27
#4 - 770 (Q50,V46) 7/29
#5 - 750 (Q48,V47) 7/31
#6 - 770 (Q50,V46) 8/1

Actual GMAT - 8/3/19 - 710 (Q48, V40)

Did Manhattan prep books for quant and verbal first along with OG guide questions. Then did target test prep for quant. Studied everyday for 1.5 months.

Took all the practice tests at the library, just couldn't take them at a time similar to actual exam. Exam was at 3:30 on the afternoon I have my practice exams in the mornings usually.

Really not sure how to proceed here. Really need a 750 to have some chances of getting into the school I want. Plan to retake it in a couple weeks but what should I do in between that time. I'm pretty sure I messed up SC and RC on the exam. I usually get all my RCs correct but there was one on the exam I just wasn't able to comprehend fully. First time that's happened. But how should I focus my next 2 weeks so that quant gets back to a 49-50 and verbal ofcourse needs a lot.

Have been really disappointed with myself and woke up at midnight worrying about this. So decided to reach out and ask for any advice. Would appreciate any advice or resources that will be helpful. Like a crash course on SC or something :)

Thank you.

Hi NeehaL,

First off, 710 with Q48 is a very nice score - so don’t be too disappointed. I know that we have already been in touch through email; so, be sure to follow the short-term study plan I sent over, and you should be in a great spot when you retake the GMAT.

If you have any further questions, feel free to reach out to me directly.
