Hello,
this is my second attempt to make a post here, as in the first I didn't give a detailed report.
The fact is that I need a 600+ in the GMAT, maybe before Christmas.
In the first 26/09/2016 diagnostic kaplan cat I got a 460 (Q35, V17). That was my score, without studing. I am studing since 27/09/2016. Two weeks later 10/10/16 (after reading the Kaplan book - I liked the strategies) I got in the 1st practise test a 530 (Q36, V26) and I thought that something happended. Today 31/10/16 (After reading all the series of the MGMAT - I liked the theory) I got a 520 in the official mba.com one (Q39, V23). I feel dissapointed, as I think that after 120+ hours of studing, I am doing something wrong.
At this point, I am not very sure if I can get this 600+ soon, or if I have to quit and to find something else, another master, without gmat in the requirements. I am interested for a master in marketing and gmat is not a req for all universities in europe.
Is there anything I can do for FREE in order to boost efficiently my score soon?
I have the OG book, the Manhattan series (I didnt do the problems sets from there) and the Kaplan book.
I have a great problem in CR. I am not native and the most of times I dont understand whats going on, so I cant prething anything.
With the mathematics I don't have problem, but most of the times I see that I don't even know how to solve the problems.
If anyone has to propose something, I will be greatful to hear it.
Thanks in advance.

You mentioned not feeling good about critical reasoning - is it the vocabulary being used or the question structure that is challenging you?
If you feel good on the math but are still getting this score, you should brush up and practice on the key quantitative concepts (ex: make sure you know geometry terms)
530 --> 600 in 7 weeks isn't impossible but will require a lot of studying.

I can find the premises, the background, the conclusion. I don't know how to find the assumption, the weakness ecc. I just can't prethink of something. I don't know whats going on.
