Hi,
I'm currently trying to prep for the GMAT. I'm really bad at math and alot of the concepts I've forgotten and don't remember. I've registered with
Magoosh to assist. I'm trying to tackle their 3-month plan being that I've scheduled to take the test April 2018 so that I can apply for priority deadlines at the schools of my interest but I'm finding it hard to follow that plan being that I work full time and am currenlty taking the last 6 credit hours for my undergraduate degree and I'm married with 4 kids. I'm super swamped! Considering this, I'm behind on their 3-month plan but I do not want to follow a 6 month plan being that I won't have time (if need be) to retest prior to the max deadline of July. If I take in April and do not like my score, I will have time to retest prior to the July final deadline. Can anyone help me? Offer any suggestions or strategies to help me better retain and study in order to do a good job considering my schedule and time frame left...tips and tricks....
Hi nekiwa07,
Your Choice for
Magoosh is great. It's a great course and can really help you achieve your dream score. Also if you need any additional help for verbal, I would highly encourage you to consider
e-gmat verbal online or the
e-gmat verbal live course. They are both amazing courses especially designed for non-natives. They offer almost 25% of their courses for free so you can try out their free trial to decide which one you want to go for. Plus the
e-gmat Scholaranium which is included in both the courses is one of the best verbal practice tools in the market. You can easily track your progress in that you can identify your strengths and analyze and improve on your weak areas.
I must add that if you are particularly looking to discover and improve on your weak areas in quant; a subscription to
GMATCLUB tests is the best way to do that. They are indeed phenomenal and will not only pinpoint your weak areas but also help you improve on them.
Further taking multiple mocks might help. Apart from the GMATPREP,
Manhattan GMAT tests and Veritas Prep Tests in my experience have good verbal and Quant section and will certainly help you point out and improve your weak areas.
Further another advantage of taking many mocks is to build up your stamina. Apart from the GMATPREP tests, taking practise tests of any major GMATPREP company ought to do that.
I would also encourage you to purchase the GMATPREP QP 1 for some great additional practice. Here is a link that will help you with your decision.

Hope this helps. All the best!
