Hi everyone. I have very recently started my GMAT prep, I took a diagnostic test at Princeton Review, with no preparation at all and could manage only a 440 (30Q, 17V) I will start my classes now and I aim to give my final GMAT around August Last week. Can I hope to get a 700+ in the next 4 months? Or is it too unrealistic?
Any tips and tricks or advice would help.
Background: Had appeared for CAT 8 yrs back (90 percentile) however am out of touch with quant and verbal now.

Very much possible, but you must be focussed during the next few months leading to the test date. Please remember that most GMAT test takers take 3 months of dedicated preparation time to achieve a 700+ score. Please take practice tests at regular intervals to track your progress. All the best.

Hello InspiredSoul
Interesting nick
First of all, Princeton Review is not at all relevant test to gauge your GMAT current standings.
Bad news that is easier than the real thing
however, dont pay attention to that at the moment.First thing you need to do is to take official mock exam from GMATPrep, or any from test makers.
That is true indication of your current status.
Good news is that you just recently started your prep.
For that time period that you have, you should only use official materials and Manhattan guides as supplement, or their online course if you decide that you are studying better with video presentations.
There are a lot of study plans online, so just google them if you need them as day to day guidance.
Of course you can create your own study plan, just by dividing days of available prep with your total final materials chosen, for instance number of questions per day, or number of pages per day that you need to do etc.
I can recommend you Magoosh GMAT study plans (free online), you can pick beginner 3 month plan for instance, or some version that focus more verbal or quant, depending on your "strengths and weakness".
You dont need to purchase their premium plan, just use official materials + Manhattan sources scheduled daily/weekly through out study plan as described there, but you may if you want.
Take first mock after month of prep, and then continue to take them twice a month until last month, where you should take them every week and be careful to take time for thorough review, this is how you learn and progress the most.
Okay, you mentioned starting some classes above, I suppose that means you will have a tutor, thats fine, still everything described stands, it is complementary.
To answer your final and main question, can you hope or is it unrealistic ? answer is: it is not impossible
Having said that, it is best to keep realistic approach all the time during prep and don't pressure yourself mentally, it takes time to build decent or competitive score.
Good luck and stay diligent and devoted
