Disappointed by my 1st Mock score [#permalink] New post   13 Feb 2022, 13:19
I took the first GMAT practice test on experts’ Global. I bought the full plan of Experts global and after 1 month of preparation from experts global. I completed the Phase 1 and took the test. I scored a lowly 560.
Q43, V25, IR2
Before experts global i went through manhattan prep guides for quants for a month and after that i bought experts global package after researching a bit on the web.

I am very disappointed with myself now. I was aiming for a 760 in GMAT and a score of something around 690 after almost 2 months but with this kind of score i dont see a huge improvement happening in future.
I am a working professional. And still try to take out 2-3 hours a day. I was planning to take the GMAT this year by april. But after this setback i am wondering if i am too dumb for it.
Does anyone has any advice. Should i ditch experts global? Should i be doing something else?

My only advice would be to never give up. Try to be the best version of yourself, and just maybe you might get to your desired score. But if you give up now, then we would never know if you were capable of getting that elite score. Good luck!

Getting a mock score of 700+ or less than 600+ does not guarantee a desired score on D day, I would advise you to review your mock and work on your weakness rather get disappointed of the outcome of the mock..

Hi jeanthunder,

From a mock test, you cannot have a good amount of data on your performance. Attempting an official CAT might give you a better insight into your progress. Manhattan prep strategy guides are great for concepts, so you can go through them.

Good Luck!
