How do I filter out questions on gmatclub that are from official mocks ?
can find such tags ..please help

Avoid the questions tagged "GMATPrep"

"GMATPrep" is this tag for official mock tests only or all OG questions?
Also how will it work giving forum quiz or adaptive test..cant see this tag on Q’s bank

GMATPrep includes all the questions that are for sale by the gmat except for those on the official guides

With forum quiz you can select "official excluding mock" or similar

what about in the question bank or adaptive tests @mysterymanrog?

i couldnt filter on this tag in question bank

What adaptive tests? If you are referring to GMATClub tests, then those use their own questions which are separate

May you post a screenshot?

unable to upload
when you head to GMAT header , under that go to practice quesntion bank
-- we can filter on topic/difficulty but not on ’ GMATPrep’ tag

Does anybody has bought GMAT official 3-6 mocks and do not require any more? Pls connect

My pleasure! Actually, I'm daring to attempt the Focus Edition. How about you?

Hey guys, I plan taking the GMAT by the end of this year. Looking for a study companion for the next few weeks. I have already taken the GMAT and scored a 660 - Q48 V33 and I am aiming for a 720 - Q49 V40. if interested please DM me

Is Coordinate Geometry is still a part of GMAT Focus?

It is - Coordinate Geometry’s included in the Quant Review book for the focus edition.

I have been preparing for the GMAT since couple of months, had little inconsistency in between but have more or less made up for the lost time.
My GMAT scores have inconsistent for the first 3 official mocks-

1. 650 V35 Q44
2. 660 V34 Q47
3. 620 V31 Q44

Honestly the third one was a big blow as I was expecting a score increase, interestingly my number of questions wrong in test 3 was 2 less than test 1, but the scaled scores are the same. I am guessing I got more easier questions wrong in test 3.

I am really lost when it comes to Verbal, as I have completed OG, and practiced so many questions from GMATClub, but seems like I am not improving.
There are too many materials on how to improve and I am unable to strategize properly.

Has anyone gone through this particular situation? I would be really grateful for some tips or strategies that could help me.

PS- I have scheduled the test for November 24th so do not have too much time as well.

The official mocks you took were of the old version of Gmat or Focus edition ?

Latest ones on the official website

GMAT edition

Well, I can understand the disappointment. But by following a structured and well defined process I believe you will be able to make improvements. To begin with, I see that your quant isn’t that great. So oncourse, you need to spend enough time with your concepts. You need to consistently hit a Q47 at the least. Because tilla Q47-48 its only basic concepts that are being testes.

1. What resources are you using: By not having the right resources in quant, or by not practicing the right set of questions that help you drill the application of the concept, could be one of the reasons. Moreover, how much time are you spending on the questions you got incorrect? Are you learning something new with every question that you get incorrect? You need to reflect on your approach and evaluate your performance in every step of the way

2. For verbal, too, you need to have a very strong hold on your basics. The way I look at it, in verbal "basics" comprises of two broad buckets - Comprehension skills and basic sentence structure rules (if you plan in taking the previous GMAT version). Maintaining and error log and identifying why you faltered can help you get more clarity on the gaps in your verbal skills

3. Try to maintain a certain habit. For example, while writing any sentence, or reading any article, apply your learnings. implement your verbal skills in real life scenarios. Additionally, read a few articles you improve your comprehension skills. LSAT passages are a great way to achieve this goal

4. Probably, you too should find someone who could make the prep journey more fun for you. Having a good "study buddy" could make your prep more fun and engaging

I am starting my GMAT prep and looking for study buddy…I am still undecided which course I should subscribe to but planning to give TTP 5 days free course a try starting tomorrow .Let me know your experience and also if you want to team up !
