Hello All,
I have just recently found out about GMAT, many have advised taking a diagnostic test to know where I stand so I took one without any revision or practice.
So the following is what I scored in GMATprep software GMAT1.
Q(50) 90%, V(30) 56%. TOTAl: 660 81%
Q I had a total of 8 mistakes(all were silly mistakes) completed 20 minutes early
V I had a total of 15 mistakes. completed 10 minutes early, I think it will take practice to manage time properly.
see the break-up below.
SC: total(17), correct(9), incorrect(8).
RC: total(13), correct(7), incorrect(6).
CR: total(11), correct(10), incorrect(1).
it seems SC questions were more in number, is this the general scenario? or did it happen because I was getting SC questions wrong and getting CR right?
Is the test adaptive not only in the level of the questions but also type?
anyways it seems I am weak in SC and RC, in many cases in SC I felt two options were correct, don't know what to do now.
My plan is to write the GMAT exam at the end of October's so I have around 3 months of time to prep.
what do you guys suggest? which books are good? I think I should improve my SC a lot, will it be tough for me (non-native)? I am thinking to read SC grail, RC grail and Manhattan SC, RC and Veritas SC, RC.
Also do you people think I can climb to 760+?
Thank you.
