I finished all - and I have been preparing for 1 year - call me a slow learner - but I have covered a journey from lower 550s

to maybe 620s - I know not a proud score but I have been keeping up with a demanding boss too and some emotional turmoil

Also - since I have you here - if I were to reset my gmat club tests - will I get new questions - or same ones - like do they work like mba.com tests
Thank you for the question.
We should probably change our reset feature. We had much longer than mba.com but it works differently than they’re paid tests. I don’t know the point of their reset, it doesn’t really make sense why won’t you just give two tests but that’s beyond the point perhaps.

Anyway, if you reset the question bank, it will mark all the questions as unattempted, which will result in repeats.

Resetting is usually only helpful if you have taken a long break in your preparation or you’ve blown through questions and you want to retake them or don’t mind repeat ones but usually it’s not helpful for most people.

It’s not about the final score but really the improvement.

GMAT favors fast and intensive preparation so spending 3 to 4 months and the structured study plan tend to deliver much better results. I know it is hard to get there for some jobs and maintain your relationship at work which you will need for letters of recommendation but the ideal time schedule is compact because the test is based on a lot of subtleties and nuance which is hard to keep in your head for a long time

There are usually 4 reading comprehension passages.

This was the surprising part of GMAT focus. They reduced the number of other questions which allowed you to save time for reading, so the verbal section has become harder in a way

My accuracy and timing go into opposite directions
That’s typical. The faster you move, the less correct you get and vice versa.

Any advice to help with timing please?
on RC take your time on the passage and focus on the bigger picture. I’ve seen people take notes but that just slows me down

I took notes. It is a purposeful slow down. The slowdown is meant to help you digest the material in your head and help it sink it so to speak. I thought note-taking was dumb too but it has a purpose
