Hi,

I am targeting to give GMAT by early March 2016. Do send me a message if anyone willing to work together to discuss doubts etc? Group discussions make study awesome. Feel free to send me in PM as well.

Thanks,

Hi Rupak Udayanan,

If you're looking to form a study group, then you should post here:

gmat-study-groups-4/

1) How long have you been studying?
2) What materials have you been using?
3) What is your goal score?

Hi Expert,

I have been preparing to about a year now. I am comfortable with the theory part of it. Primarily working on practicing the questions now.
Target: 720 to 760

Thanks,

Hi Rupak Udayanan,

Since you've been studying for about a year, I have a few questions about your CAT results:

1) How have you scored on each of your CATs (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores)?
2) Did you take the FULL CAT each time (including the Essay and IR sections)?
3) Do you have any pacing issues in any of the sections (do you finish early or have to rush just to finish)?

4) Have you taken the Official GMAT yet? If so, then how did you score?

Hi Rich,

I have been only working on concepts post my office time and have not taken mock exams.

I have given 2 mocks (Only QA & VA). Both scores were close to 600 with quant scores around 47 if I am right. Verbal is pulling me down.

Thanks,
Rupak

Hi Rupak Udayanan,

Since you have not taken a FULL-LENGTH CAT yet, we don't have a clear definition of your current strengths and weaknesses. As such, you really should plan to take a FULL CAT (including the Essay and IR sections) sometime soon. Once you have that score result, you should post back here and we can talk through your study plan. With an early March Test Date, you have about 2 months of study time - that gives you plenty of time to continue improving, but you have be consistent and realistic with the work that you do.

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
Rich
