GMAT score

Question

I just gave an official GMAT focus mock test and scored 485. It was mainly due to poor time management. I have also got alot of questions wrong approx 10-12 wrong in each section

How long should I schedule my GMAT to be prepared for atleast a 650+ score considering I will be able to study 2 hrs on weekdays and 5-6 hrs on weekends.

If you're new to the GMAT, the gmatclub study plan post could be helpful to check out. For time management, using question/time markers could be useful as well. Might be worth going through some of the posted debriefs in the Share GMAT Experience subforum. You could see what others have done/used and how long their journeys took.

Hi divyansh843,

You don't need to schedule your GMAT at this point. You have time, so go ahead with your prep for now. Schedule the GMAT when you feel more comfortable taking the test.

Prepare with official sources and also work on topics you are weak in.

Hi Divyansh! Please share section-wise scores if you can. I think you want to understand how much time you would need to prepare for GMAT. Ideally, you should try and complete the prep within 3~4 months (4 months is max). The hours mentioned by you are sufficient, provided you can invest those hours consistently over 3~4 months. GMAT is more about consistency and discipline than anything else.
Did you analyze your test and identify your weak areas? Ideally, time management is the major reason but there are a lot of underlying factors as well and that's why I wanted to check if you have analyzed your result. Check out the  blog  for building a 90-days GMAT schedule. You can use this  approach  for analyzing your tests.
