Hi,
I did the official gmat in May and I scored 330 (Q-22 and V-14)
I continued studying (on and off) from May until today. Since beginning of this month, i did three gmatpreps and i scored 430-440 (Q-34) and V(16)...
do you think that Ill be able to get 500+ if I do the real gmat in the next two weekends?
I already sent my application and missing only gmat.
Honestly, I dont think that my score was improved only by 100 points!!!
The improvement in my math score (comparing the real exam and the practice one) looks realistic for me, but not the verbal score....
2 points of difference in english
... I really focused on SC and CR after doing the real gmat, so i think my score should improve more....
any suggestions?? i need some realistic hopes

MontrealLady,
As mentioned in other threads, yes a 500 is an achievable score.
Based on your other thread regarding this topic, you said you are your own worst enemy when it comes to prep (bored, unable to concentrate/focus). Given you're struggling to get through the content in a prep environment, under the strain of the test environment I can only see this lack of focus/concentration hurting you more.
Is your timing/time management on point for the test (~2 mins/problem in quant and 1.75 mins/problem in verbal)?

Hey MontrealLady,
I really think that you need some motivation . we know that you are scoring around 300-400 , but 500 is really gettable .
- Get Number Properties and Word Translation on your tip (just two topics ) and plan your timing. Keep yourself some target for the questions .
x minutes for 15 questions
y minutes for next 15 and then z for the rest..
- Verbal : SC should be your top priority now . that is the area where you can increase your score , by reading some valuable books. Buy Manhattan Sentence Correction book .
Set your Goals High and remember , you may not struggle with the books anymore
