Hello,

I am a member since 2007, however did not utilize this forum at my best. Now I think I am sure your help seriously ! I have already taken GMAT 4 times.

1st in 2007 : 560 (Q-48, V-19) (Not valid now!)
2nd in 2010 : 570 (Q-48, V-19)
3rd in Sep’12 : 610 (Q-48, V-25)
4th in 5th Jul’13 : 570 (Q 47, V-21) (I thought of retaking for the last time to increase my score 650+ but miserably failed :cry:

Last few month I have been preparing for the last time ( :!: ) thinking that I would surely get 650+. Unfortunately I ended up with the horrible 570 once again. I am now afraid of retaking. I am really blank on my scores.
Now I am in a serious problem.. :cry: and trying to introspect whether I SHOULD retake?? I know my Verbal is very weak, but last few CATs I was getting average 30+, hence I thought its has improve a bit. But after retaking real GMAT finally on 5th July, it seems my status is same. Request Your suggestion on the following :idea: :

It is advisable to retake GMAT for 5th time?

Request your kind help :idea: .
Regards,
Prabhat

Dear Prabhat,
As for retaking the GMAT, first of all I recommend this post:
https://magoosh.com/gmat/2013/should-i-retake-the-gmat/
It sounds as if exam anxiety is causing you some difficulties, so I will recommend this series of articles:

https://magoosh.com/gmat/2012/the-gmat-b ... g-picture/
https://magoosh.com/gmat/2012/zen-boot-c ... -the-gmat/
Finally, I would like to recommend Magoosh. You would be eligible for our score guarantee, because you have already taken the GMAT. We have 200+ video lessons, covering all the content and strategy you need, and we have 700+ questions, each with a video explanation for accelerated learning. Here's a practice PS question:
