Hi All,
It would be very much of help if I get some suggestion for my post.
First of all brief about my current situation:
I gave my GMAT on 22nd of August'16. Got a very poor mark. Prepared through local training institute and EmpowerGMAT for the last month.
Found EmpowerGMATs techniques very handy, but had a hard time to go through all the section and got in a dilemma, and fell off on the face in my 1st exam. VA -16 and Quant-38. Before the exam the Mock scores were around 500-600.
Not in touch with GMAT prep since then. Currently working and cant give more than 5 hrs/day for studies on weekdays.
mY qUESTION:
Should I opt for a Course again? If yes which course for this short span. I hope to give my exam by 15th JAN.
I target for a score of 650+.I know my weak points,But need a lot of practice and tricks to get to that point.
Pls help out, what shd be my strategy and how shd I start, I dont want to loose this chance again.
A quick reply would be very my helpful.

Hi Anandam,
Many Test Takers spend 3 months (or more) of consistent study time before they hit their 'peak' scores. However, from our records, it looks like you only used the EMPOWERgmat Course for 1 month, so it's likely that you just did not put in enough time and effort to have scored higher yet.
If you have not studied since August, then it's likely that some of your GMAT skills have 'faded' a bit. As such, it would be a good idea to take a NEW, FULL-LENGTH CAT (with the Essay and IR sections) so that we can get a sense of your current skills, strengths and weaknesses. Once you have that score, you should report back here and we can discuss your study options.
