Welcome to GMAT Club Sameena!

You may be in the same boat as Fatma - see my response to him. He also has 380 and needs 600 - a pretty impressive coincidence!

Can you suggest any methodology/plan to move forward based on what I have posted?

I want to improve my QUANTS drastically. VERBAL is not a problem, as I am confident I can do it (I have always been good in English)

Thanks for your help!

To get your quant up - you need to get a good book. Don't rush into test-taking - instead focus on fundamentals/basics and make sure you get the theory part down first.

This thread is dedicated to Math Guidebooks: best-gmat-math-prep-books-reviews-recommendations-77291.html

The most recommended all-in-one math book is the Kaplan Math Workbook.
If you are REALLY Bad - consider the Manahattan GMAT Guides - they have a number to address very specific math topics - all come recommended from members on this forum.

For quant - it is pretty straightforward - you need to refresh High School Math, learn gmat patterns, and get a handle of the DS questions. You should be in OK shape in a month. Again - don't rush to solving questions so much. I would hang on to the OG Quantitative until you have gone through the Kaplan Math Workbook.

Thanks for your reply.

I have the KAPLAN mathworkout book and have worked out questions from it before my first test. As I told you I had been taking the GMAX online course for the past 2 weeks and I am almost gonna be done with in a couple of days. I have a fair good grip now on the basics except for very few specific topics like range, standard deviation etc.

Please suggest what should I do once my course gets over in the next two days, considering the fact I would be having timeup to the 6TH of June i.e about 24 days to be precise.

Also please send me your email id if you dont mind as I can be in touch with you for any help directly.

P.S: Have you taken the test btw? what was your score??

Regards

Thanks for the reply. Since you have declined my request, I atleast sincerly ask you to help and guide me on the forum to reach my goal as I dont see any one else replying to my posts except you.

Would appreciate your help which might turn my life once for all
