I was asked to post a debrief of my experience in another thread. I had written quite a bit for my first attempt, but I left the computer and my login timed out. My second attempt was rejected because it contained a link to the thread with the debrief request. Here's my third (and shortest attempt).
I took the GMAT last Saturday and got a score of 770 (Q48, V48). Update: I recieved the official score report, and I got a 6.0 for AWA. I found that chineseburned's 6.0 AWA guide was invaluable; I would definitely recommend it to everyone. Many kudos!!!
Books Used:
- (1 week) Princeton - completely useless...only good for familiarizing yourself with the test format
- (1 week) Kaplan - too many useless (IMHO) quant tricks such as backsolving and plugging in numbers...I found directly solving for answers was faster and much easier
- (rest of the ~2 months) MGMAT Set with OG's - bought due to recommendations from the GMAT Club Forum =)
Practice Tests:
- Just 2 GMATPrep Exams (Both identical 760 score, forgot the breakdown but Q was higher) the day before the test, because I had fallen behind schedule and also because I got sick the week before the exam, so sick that I couldn't study for a couple of days =(
Test Strategies:
- tried to maintain at least 2:00 per question left at all times
- ended up with about 12 mins left when I finished quant, 8 mins for verbal.
