Ok so this question has probably been asked before but I'm thinking about my MBA.
I got my Human resources Diploma from a community college and i was on the Deans list, community college was a joke.
I then got my Bachelors in Human Resources and maintained a B+ GPA without actually trying a lot.
That being said, math and english have always been my weak point, so considering that GMAT is essentially math and english, what hope do i have? Can I get 600+ by reviewing MGMAT guides? I am determined and read to to bust ass but do i need to have good foundation in math and english to have a good chance at my goal? Or will prep course, practice test be a lot of help?
Thanks guys, just thinking about what to do

So i just did the Kaplan free prep exam and i scored 450. I really had no clue about the math questions, until they got easier lol!
How good is the Kaplan test at predicting real results? I think with studying I should be fine

The reason the test focuses on math and language is because when you drill down in any subject area these subjects encompass all other areas (science is applied math, sociology is a combination of math though heavily weighted on the communication/critical thinking side, etc.). Both sections are about thinking through problems, be they math or English.
I am wondering if you mean you don't test well in them? You're going to be hard-pressed to score well if those are your weak areas. You should assess your own abilities through a practice test first and then get a sense of where you're at. Once you do that, make a goal for yourself and set aside time to study until you're testing within that range consistently.
This test is HARD. Don't underestimate it.
Kaplan tests are not very representative in my opinion. Think about it this way--their tests are designed to convince you to take their prep course...
