hi all, i have a question: is it generally possible to improve the gmat score? i understand the question sounds really strange, however, my younger brother studied full time for 3 months and he could not improve more than ten score points from 490. on the contrary, i got 690 ten years ago, and with no prep, i again got 690. and now someone tells me that 'gmat score rarely changes'. i hope you prove me wrong with real examples of improvement and changes in scores, please. thanks in advance.

Hi you can definitely improve your score with a good study plan, just check the other thread in the forum. But I think it's the same for everything , some people perform better than the other..

Hi hoosni,
The GMAT is a consistent, predictable Test, so you CAN train to score at a higher level. The key word there is "train" - you have to learn the necessary content, train in the proper Tactics, hone your skills, eliminate the little mistakes from your work, learn how to properly handle the physical/mental/psychological aspects of the Test, etc. If you don't train properly, then your general score range will likely remain the same (and GMAC has publicly stated that the Official Score that you earn on Test Day is within +/- 30 points of actual ability, so if you take the GMAT twice and score within 0-30 points on both attempts then you are essentially performing the same).
Are you asking these questions for yourself or for your brother?
