The main disadvantage of using a used book is that the data insights coupon code will be redeemed and so you will not be having access to most data insights questions because

WA@rpt160
You will be missing 15% of new content. Not much will be missed
This is also correct when talking about the difference between current and previous official guide versions 👍

Is there any coupon code from MBA.com for official practice exams?

These are quite rare. There is currently none that I know of and the last one I have seen was maybe in November.

It’s more than enough! But, you should also take into consideration how you’re studying. If you’re just gonna go through the books, then it may be hard. But if you go through the books + watch yt video/do external courses (best option imo), you can even crack 650! It’s all about your commitment and dedication.
Hi thanks
ill try my best its takes alot of time to understand verbal specially

How will you put 6 hours everyday?

I had no life and would have to immediately put myself through the GMAT upon getting home in the evening and I still couldn’t do more than 5
I just got time for next 2 months so dedicating this time to study only

There is no such questions as stupid question.

But there are stupid answers

Love the quote 😂

PS. The official exams are always recommended. If you can get away just with official test and you don’t need any additional ones, then you just need to buy the official ones.

Some people prefer to save the official exams for later they want to take more test and only in that case do you need to buy additional practice tests.

I had scored 205 now I’m at 625. If you miss a lot 205 is possible

I’m aiming for 705

Wow. I think you have to leave some questions and answer to make some new mistakes to get a 205, so the initial improvement will be tremendous because you’ll be moving in hundreds of points,

But without new mistakes, usually improvement is capture about 200 points without something absolutely life changing

Yes, unless you get easier Qs right Gmat won’t throw harder ones at you, however you can occasionally solve harder ones to practice and get a hand
