Hi frisak,

Do not take this score too seriously as it's just to assess your current level. I have a couple of articles for you which can help you understand the right way to prepare for GMAT.




Generally speaking, it can take around 300 hours (give or take) to prepare from scratch. This includes everything from concepts to mock tests. Of course it depends on a number of things such as your target score, your strengths and weaknesses, your structure of preparation, the resources you use, your pace of learning etc.

I would suggest you to choose a resource which can help you:

• Learn the concepts
• Learn the methodology (Most important)
• Practice questions
• Analyze detailed solutions
• Follow a study plan
• Work on your weak areas

The need for a personalized study plan:
I understand that maintaining a balance between work life and studies can very challenging. To do so efficiently, it is always advisable to follow a study plan with clear deadlines.

As you are a working professional, a generic study plan wouldn’t suffice. You need something more personalized so that you can finish your preparation in given time. By personalized, I mean something which takes into account the number of hours you can dedicate in a week and creates a study plan based on that. It should have clear deadlines so that you can focus on finishing those tasks scheduled for the week. This will help you concentrate better.

I understand that creating a study plan can be a tedious task, so you can check GMATWhiz which can help you create a personalized study plan. There is a free trial for which you can register and create a study plan with weekly deadlines based on the number of hours you can dedicate in a week. This way it would be easy to follow that and also you can completely focus on the preparation instead of spending time on making study plan. And the best part about the plan is it is totally integrated with the course. All you need to do is click on the Start button and it will give you the right lessons and quizzes as you’re supposed to go through in the right order.
