Hi Please_Let_Me_Score_700,

What you're looking for - and what you might actually need - are not necessarily the same thing. 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:

Studies:
1) How long have you studied?
2) What materials have you used?
3) How have you scored on each of your CATs (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores)?

Goals:
4) What is your goal score?
5) When are you planning to take the GMAT?
6) When are you planning to apply to Business School?
7) What Schools are you planning to apply to?

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

Hi All,

Thanks for the link you've submitted. I'll use these for now and see how well I can get going.

I've been studying for about 2 months now and mostly focusing on the quantitative section of the test. My plan is to do the test at the end of April 2017. I have done any of the CAT tests yet as I am currently working on building up my confidence and familiarity with math.

Hi Please_Let_Me_Score_700,

If you've truly been studying for 2 months, then you really MUST take a FULL-LENGTH CAT (with the Essay and IR sections), so that we can get a sense of your current skills, strengths and weaknesses. Without that 'reference' score, we have no idea what you should truly be focused on and we don't know how far you are from your goal score. You can download 2 CATs for free from www.mba.com (and they come with some additional practice materials). A FULL CAT takes about 4 hours to complete, so make sure that you've set aside enough time to take it in one sitting. Once you have those scores, you should report back here and we can talk through how best to proceed from here.

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