GMAT Retake Help [#permalink] New post   16 Feb 2021, 23:11
Hello,

I took my 1st attempt at GMAT in Aug'20 and scored 740 (Q48,V42). My debrief is https://gmatclub.com/forum/gmat-debrief-331226.html#p2586796. I'm planning to retake to try for a 760 and a Quant score of 49+. Appreciate any suggestions for the same.
Would 30-45 days be a realistic target especially since I didn't prepare at all after my first attempt.
I'm comfortable with SC and RC and extremely vulnerable with Probability, PnC, work problems, and some tough trick DS questions. CR and other quant concepts are middle ground.
I'm at a loss on how to proceed as I can't zero in on a starting point.
Additionally, is the ESR be worth it?

Thanks in advance for the support.

Hi doublewhammy,

Congratulations on scoring a 740. You can definitely improve your score to 760+ by working on your weak areas. And it's a good thing that you are aware of your weak areas. An ESR would definitely provide a few more insights about your performance in the individual quarters, your timing and your performance in sub-sections but it's up to you whether you want to take it or not.

We can get in touch over a call and have a detailed discussion on your study strategy for your previous attempt, your weak areas and what should be the plan of action for your retake. We can even analyze your ESR together if you wish to order one. You can use the below link to get in touch with me.

Hi doublewhammy,

Just to be clear, you have not done any GMAT studying since your previous attempt in August?
