Hi Akash, have you given an official mock test?

If you are at a score of around 600 currently, 720+ is a possibility within 2 months; on the other hand, if you are at a score level of 500 or less, 2 months would sound ambitious.

Hi Akash,

I have a few articles which you might find helpful. Please go through them to understand the right way to prepare for GMAT.

How to start preparing for GMAT

The need of the hour (A personalized study plan):  
As you are planning to take your GMAT in 2 months, the first thing to do is to create a proper study plan with clear deadlines. But a generic study plan will not help as you need a study plan according to your requirements. You need a study plan which has tasks that can be finished in 4 hours on any day. Not less, not more.

So, you need a personalized study plan which takes into account the number of hours you can study in a day. Once you have a study plan, make sure to stick to that. Create a habit of studying everyday because consistency is the key. You can go through the recording below to understand the right way to create a study plan.

Having said that, I need a few more details about your GMAT prep so that I can help you in a much better way. The details could include:

the resources you are using right now 
 your mock score if any 
 at which stage in the prep you are right now

You can write back to me here or a better way is to get in touch over a call and discuss the same. You can use the link below to schedule a call with me.

Hello Akash,

GMAT Club is one of the great platforms to get information about the GMAT official test, Study plan, Section wise instructions, etc.

To assist you better, we would request you to write back with the following questions:

1. What are your current score and target score? (You can mention the Diagnostic test score also)
2. How do you rate yourself in Quant and Verbal?

In a generalized way, to crack GMAT, you need a disciplined study plan, command on basic concepts, exposure to agile approaches, reliable resources, updated comprehensive material and mock tests, and an expert with whom you will be connected throughout your preparations.

You may also see to connect with experts online for your preparation.

As a GMAT instructor, I will first recommend taking our Free diagnostic test https://www.mathrevolution.com/diagnostic/dtExamMember and receiving a comprehensive study guide by topic. This test will clearly help you understand your weak areas. There are also many free materials available in the GMAT Club.

Time is precious and unstoppable at the same time. You can schedule a Free counseling session for 20 mins with one of our experts: https://calendly.com/mathrevolution for detailed advice on your study plans.

If you have a recent mock test score available with break up, kindly send it back to me.

Your diagnostic score will clarify what plan you should adopt to beat the GMAT. An initial mock rating will help to understand your concept knowledge of both sections.

Since we are a math expert, we will recommend you go through our post on the GMAT club, which gives a complete breakdown of Math. Breakdown of GMAT math questions and types: https://gmatclub.com/forum/overview-of- ... l#p1641411

We appreciate your time and patience in reading this reply.

Should you need any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us at [email protected]

Success is within your reach.
Good luck!

Hi AkashAgarwal1,

GMAT skills can 'fade' over time - so if it has been approximately 6 months since you were in 'study mode' for the GMAT, then it's possible that your skills have decreased a bit during that time. As such, the logical next step at this point would be for you to take a NEW CAT/mock so that we can get a sense of your current skills, strengths and weaknesses. While the most realistic CATs available are the 6 from GMAC, retaking a CAT that you've already taken is NOT a realistic way to assess your skills - since you will likely see some 'repeat' questions that you have already faced. Unfortunately, seeing even a couple of repeats can 'throw off' the Scoring Algorithm and impact your pacing, energy levels, fatigue, etc. (meaning that they would likely all appear to be better than they actually are). Thankfully, the CATs from Kaplan, MGMAT and Veritas are all 'close enough' to the real thing that they will provide you with a relatively realistic score assessment (assuming that you correctly take the CAT in a realistic fashion that matches the parameters that you will face when you take the Official GMAT) - so you can use any NEW CATs from any of those sources next.

Before I can offer you the specific advice that you’re looking for, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:

1) What study materials do you currently have access to?
2) During your prior studies, on what dates (or approximate dates) did you take EACH of your CATs/mocks and how did you score on EACH (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?
3) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?

If you took your 1st Official GMAT at a Test Center, then you might also choose to purchase the Enhanced Score Report. While the ESR doesn’t provide a lot of information, there are usually a few data points that we can use to define what went wrong on Test Day (and what you should work on to score higher). If you purchase the ESR, then I'll be happy to analyze it for you.

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
Rich
