Hi RemcoVT,

I’m glad that you reached out, and I’m happy to help.

Since you scored 490 on your latest GMAT (90 points off you score goal), it’s likely that you have an array of quant and verbal weak areas that are dragging down your GMAT score. So, to improve to 580, you likely need to follow a study plan that allows you to learn GMAT quant and verbal from the ground up.

If you get too hung on the micro data from your ESR, my fear is that you’ll end up spinning your wheels and not realize the improvement you need. Furthermore, you may need longer than just 4 weeks to improve your GMAT score.

Meanwhile, while doing general quant work involving answering non-multiple choice questions could make sense as part of your preparation, to drive your GMAT score higher, you will likely have to do much more practice involving carefully answering many GMAT style questions of all levels than you have done so far. You have to better learn how to handle the challenges specific to GMAT quant questions and arrive at correct answers.

Certainly, if you’d like some further, general advice on how to improve your GMAT quant and verbal skills, feel free to each out.

Good luck!
