One month away from GMAT. Strategies, study plans and ideas? [#permalink] New post   22 Apr 2019, 12:04
Hi everyone

I have exactly one month for GMAT. So far I gave two practice tests.
GMAC Prep: 550 (the first test) Verbal 31, Quant 35
MGMAT Test: 620. (after two weeks prep) Verbal 34, Quant 41
Im planning to give a practice test every weekend and go over the problem areas during the week.
I have four weekends left and if i can squeeze in a work day, I can give 5 more tests. I plan to give 4 more MGMAT tests and take the 2nd GMAC test the weekend before my main exam. (My exam is on a tuesday).

My plan is to keep practicing questions from Official guide every day and go over the concepts of the problem areas from the previous week's test. In quant my problem area is Data sufficiency and in verbal it is sentence correction. Most of the times i see that I know the concept but I forget or overlook the question. This is causing me precious points.

My goal score is 700. I plan to apply for part time MBA if that helps. Do you have any tips that will help me reach my goal score? How can i maximize the one month I have to get my goal score?

Hello PalC10 ... welcome to the community.

1. Part-time MBA programs are a bit lenient on GMAT scores.
2. For verbal OG is perfect.
3. For Quant along with OG, please start practicing the 600-level problems in your pain areas. And when you reach 75-85% accuracy under 2 mins, move forward to 700 level problems. ( Links for PS & DS provided below).

Hope this helps!!

Quality>Quantity.

Concentrate on doing x questions twice instead of 2x questions. Stay consistent and I am certain that you will do well!

Best wishes!

Hi,

Try to analyze your mocks and prepare a list of question types which you are getting incorrect.
Revisit the concepts for those and next time make sure that you get them right.

Hope this helps!
