HelpmeOut41, don't get discouraged on your road to kick the GMAT in the teeth! Remember that we all start the journey in different stages. Some people already have strong foundations and don't need much to reach their target scores. Others, need to start from the beginning, and their journeys will be long. Just remember that fear is meant to save your life in a or death situation, and not to prevent you from achieving great things in life!

I have prepared and taken the GMAT exam twice. The first time was year of 2012 and 2nd time year of 2015. I had someone to guide through math the first time. I studied the strategies from Princeton and it was other manual for both first and second time. I worked the problems, the process of elimination in result the same score in the 500; which nowhere consider to get into Graduate School. I purchased GMAT 2016 manual but have not picked up because of my result from the pass two exam failed that cost 250.00 each. It is now 2017 and planning on taking it again but I am having anxiety just thinking about taking it again. I like encouragement to retake the GMAT exam and pass this third time. My goal has been to earn Graduate degree in Accounting but I must past this entrance exam to get accepted. My schooling will already be taken care of my serving in the military in Texas . Its been awhile since I have studied and needing some spunk on how to take baby steps to get back into study - starting with Math; which is my weakest. Since I have failed twice I have become anixious. I ask for suggestion on how to overcome to can start my Graduate journey in accounting.

Don't be discouraged. Everything becomes easier with practice. Try the Manhattan books which are excellent to refresh and improve your math skills. If you need to go even more basic, try the Khan Academy. It has some excellent tutorials which should supplement your GMAT study. All the best and do not lose hope.

Just a question: Why not? Why shouldn't you retake GMAT test? You have failed twice, but this doesnot mean you could be beaten easily.

You are in military (or you will be serving military), this means you are a brave soldier. Nothing could beat you, my friend :-D If anything is your goal, go for it! Good luck! :-D

Hey,
Why do you want to give up? may be this time you will have a much better plan based on what did not work last two attempts.

You can definitely find a mentor and take some coaching on how to approach etc.
