Hi All,
I am sure many of you have been in my position, but I am feeling so discouraged by this exam and I have already signed up to take the GMAT June 1st. My practice scores are as follows:
1. MGMAT CAT #1 on 4/29: 530, Q37, V27
2. MGMAT CAT #2 on 5/6: 650, Q40, V39
3. Veritas CAT Simulator on 5/13: 550, Q30, V34
I felt like I had made great improvement after my second practice test, and that I was on my way to achieving my goal of 700. After this past weekend, I feel like I am so far off and starting from square one. I had a long day on Sunday and took the CAT at 5:00 pm, not very focused, feeling unmotivated, and had to restart due to computer issues. Could this have affected me enough to drop my score 100 points or was my second CAT a fluke?!?
I have been in the Veritas full course for the past month. Over the next two weeks, I plan to review all of the Manhattan Quant books, as well as go through the OG 12th Edition. I can devote probably at least 40 hours of study time within the next 2 weeks, and still take the few days prior to the test off from reviewing. I feel very comfortable with verbal, even though my last score doesn't reflect that, but I think my mindset/lack of focus affected that score.
Any input is appreciated. It is so hard not to let this test get the best of you, and I can't get the thought out of my mind that I am going to fail on June 1st and be so miserable until I can take the test again!!

I know exactly what you are going through.
I took the offical gmat simulation about a month ago.
got 590
took it again two weeks ago. got 630 -> happy happy joy joy on the way to 700
last week veritas prep -> 610
it's like i am actually getting worse!
I have been very down the past few days and even thought about moving my test
day but that would mean I will have the new format instead of the old...

Why are you worried? You can always retake the GMAT. Apart from this, the best indicator of score is the GMATPrep test. See how much you get on that.
Cheer up and slog!
