Hi everyone,
I have been studying for the GMAT for a few months now, and the test day is only a few days away! I have been very pleased with my progress up until recently. Any advice on what is happening? Each test since 8/9/2014 I have been mentally prepared to break the 700 barrier, but each time I disappoint myself. My timing is pretty much dead on, a similar routine for every exam (except the 660 on 8/17 in which I didn't eat breakfast and was so frustrated by the regression that I took a break, ate and took another exam).
My study habits haven't changed, I haven't felt anxious, but I am definitely slipping! Today's results are depressing and I only have two full days until the exam.

GMAT Prep 4: Q:38 V:36 T:610 (8/30/2014)
Manhattan : Q:44 V:34 T:640 (8/30/2014)
Would you recommend:
- Waking up and taking one final practice exam, then study the rest of the day and the following day before the exam. (Sunday Exam/Study, Monday study, Tuesday test)
-Studying all day tomorrow, final practice exam Monday (Sunday study, Monday exam/study, Tuesday Test)
-Studying Sunday and Monday, and just got take the test on Tuesday
I'm not prepared to accept anything less than 700 at this stage and would appreciate your help.
Thanks!

Just at a loss.... Just finished and walked away with a 610. (Q44 V31).
Absolutely lost and confused.

Hi,
GMAT scores generally range within + or - 30 points of your average sim tests scores. With that being said you are just about within that range. Is this your first GMAT? Are you thinking of retaking? If so, I can provide you with some study tips. Also, have you tried using an adaptive course? Just one final note in reference to your original post, it is highly recommended to not study for your exam the day before and especially the morning. It is best to avoid studying on these two days, as it generally only increases stress and it is hard to grasp anything new that will make that big of a difference the night before your exam. Rather it is best to take it easy and give yourself a rest for test day. I assure you, you will not forget everything you have worked for by taking the day before your exam off. If you have any other questions please feel free to ask.
Sincerely,
Evan
