At one point, she believed GMAT wasn’t for her. After scoring 595, self-doubt crept in and she questioned her potential. But instead of quitting, she made the right strategic changes. The result? A remarkable comeback to 695. Check out how Saakshi did it.

Hi Guys,
I am happy to report to the community that i improved my gmat score from 610 to 730 within a month and half time. I was scoring well in my mocks even in my first attempt, but i was not destined to get a good score. I could not manage my time in the first attempt and had to guess randomly in the last few questions in the verbal section. That cost me derly and i scored q 48 and v 27, leaving me with 610. I prepared hard again and focussed my energy to the GMATPrep SC and CR doc. I practiced all the 185 SC questions from GMATPrep doc and all the 108 CR GMATPrep questions. I believe this gave me a lot of confidence this time. The questions from the doc are really challenging and makes you think in the right direction. The GMAT SCs are tested for meaning and overall logic. So don't just cram all the grammer rules. I think i made a big mistake by going over SC and CR rules. Read the books to get a hang of question type, but not for the rules. I think we all have good reasoning ability. So if we focus on meaning and logic, we can solve most of the GMAT verbal questions. I did not touch any other book and improved my verbal score from 27 to 38.
For quant, i bought the gmatclub tests. They are really awesome, especially the geometry and probability questions. Please work on Quant because you are going to see some challenging questions on GMAT. I neglected quant in my first attempt and scored only 48. Don't make such mistake. I believe actual GMAT quant is tougher than GMATPrep. So study well in GMAT. Do some tough questions in each of the quant areas such as geometry, number property, modulus, statistics, probability etc...
For AWA, i followed chineseburned template. I scored 6/6 in my first attempt. Chineseburned template is good enogh for this.
One important thing to consider while doing the actual test is timing. I screwed up my timing in the first attempt. I managed my time well this time and it paid off. I finished both the sections with 2 minutes. I did kaplan online CAT in my second attempt. I scored from 690 to 740. I think kaplan CATs are very accurate. I also did the princeton 670 and veritas test 700.
Let me know if you guys need any help. I am ready to help the community.
