Hi Sahil,

The initial CAT is important, so you should make sure to take it relatively soon and in a realistic fashion (take the FULL CAT - with the Essay and IR sections, take it away from your home, at the same time of day as when you'll take the Official GMAT, etc.). Until we have that score, we'll have no idea of what you'll need to work on to hit your score goal. As an aside, the 760+ score is the 99th percentile - meaning that 99% of Test Takers never score that high (regardless of how long they study or the number of times that they take the GMAT). Thankfully, NO Business School requires a score that high - so it's important to realize that the score that you "want" and the score that you "need" are not the same thing.

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
Rich
