Hi experts and friends,
What are some general GMAT strategy that one should know to get a good score ? For eg I know that missing a question due to time constraint has a higher penalty than moving on by guessing an answer and getting it wrong (please correct me if this is wrong)
Apart from this are there any other good to know strategies??.
Also is it true that first 10-12 questions are most crucial in each section and can be a deciding factor? .
Also I just gave a practice test on Princeton review and scored a 51 on Quants (8 questions were wrong but they were after the 10 / 12 th question)and got a 24 in Verbal (8 questions wrong but got 3 out of those wrong in the first 3 questions itself) - does this have to be something related to my second query above?
Thanks in advance

The Official-Guide mentions there is a significant penalty for not completing the exam. Might be worth checking out the Myth vs. Facts. section.

Hi Rakhi08,
You ask a broad question - and the answer that you're looking for will depend a great deal on your overall Goals and the studying that you have done so far. Before I can offer you the specific advice that you’re looking for, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:
Studies:
1) How long have you studied? How many hours do you typically study each week?
2) What study materials have you used so far? What “brands” of CATs/mocks have you used?
3) On what dates (or approximate dates) did you take EACH of your CATs/mocks and how did you score on EACH (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?
Goals:
4) What is your overall goal score?
5) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?
GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
