Got it. Sorry about that. I was wondering if we had the first complaint about the priceing being too low

In this case, the best option is to reach out to eGMAT and send a scresnshot to them. I suspect that the time zone may be at play here (the offer expires on March 18th and it is already March 19th in India). You can also CC [email protected]

That’s the old format - that one is no longer available

But that’s around 665 or 675.

2 months are going to be tricky if 400---> 720+ I would say not realistic from long historic data I have seen. The ceiling for 2 months is likely 120-150 points of improvement on OLD GMAT or I guess even somewhat new. So I would say 2 months is too aggressive and you need to either lower your goal or extend your time.

actually it would be around 3 months plus 1 month for tests and reviews. I can’t afford a course more than 2 moths
