Hi Gmatclub friends I have the objective to achieve 645+ in a period of two to three months, given my statistics is it possible?
I was following the GMATNinja 13-week plan until week 10 (I stopped when I took my first official exam – 04 March, btw thanks for that plan), would you recommend me to repeat that plan? I have heard about two interesting approaches to improve gmat score: topical study and the streak methodology, I’m not sure which method to use to achieve my goal score in the most efficient way. I’m able to study full time for the gmat. I would appeciate so much your insights to achieve this.
Scores:
• 01-Feb-2025 Mock 1 = 375 (DI60 ,Q86, V60)
• 15-Feb-20225 Mock 1.2 = 455 (DI76 ,Q81 ,V60 )
• 22-Feb-2025 Mock 2.1 = 475 (DI66 ,Q82 ,V73)
• 01-Mar-2025 Mock 2.2 = 575 (DI70 ,Q87, V79)
• 04-Mar-2025 Official exam 1 = 575 (DI70, Q86, V79)
• 18-Abr-2025 Mock 3 = 505 (DI65 ,Q82, V78)
• 30-Abr-2025 Mock 4 = 645 (DI80, Q87, V78)
• 03-May-2025 Official exam 2 = 525 (DI 69, Q82, V77)
Goal score: 645 (DI77, Q86, V83)

Consider checking out some posted debriefs in the Share GMAT Experience subforum. Could help give a sense how long/likely different score jumps are and which resources/prep paths people have found success with as well as any quick tips they may have shared. For Verbal, if CR is an issue, consider checking out Manhattan-Prep's 6th Edition for Critical Reasoning. If you haven't already, fair to say including official questions/official mocks into a prep path would be a solid choice. The new Official-Guide comes out on May 28 by the way.

Hi PocusFocus,
Although I cannot give you an exact day-to-day study plan, I have some general advice for you on how to move forward with your prep.
Regarding improving your GMAT skills, my biggest piece of advice is to ensure you are studying topically. In other words, be sure to focus on just ONE quant or verbal topic at a time and practice just that topic until you achieve mastery. If you can study that way, you will start seeing incremental improvement.
For example, let's say you are studying Number Properties. First, you'll need to learn all you can about that topic, and then practice only Number Property questions. After each problem set, thoroughly analyze your incorrect questions. For example, ask yourself why if you got a remainder question wrong. Did you make a careless mistake? Did you not properly apply the remainder formula? Was there a concept you did not understand in the question?
By carefully analyzing your mistakes, you will be able to fix your weaknesses efficiently and, in turn, improve your GMAT quant skills. Number Properties is just one example; follow this process for all quant and verbal topics.
For some more tips on the best way to structure your studying, here is a great article:

Good luck!
