Hi Guys,
I took my first GMAT exam on Nov 5 and got only 610, although I was scoring between 680 - 710 on gmatPrep mocks. I am thinking to start preparing again and I am not in rush to retook the exam as am now planning for the class of 2018. So please guide me - How should I start again?
Also I have used all my mocks - Manhattan and 6 GmatPrep, so If anyone went through the same scenario, please let me know how did they improve and from where they got the new resources.
Thank you!

Hey Surabhi,
What was your Quant/Verbal split?
In most such cases, my first suggestion is to get your Enhanced Score Report. It will tell you your strengths and weaknesses in the actual test. Once you identify the sections in which your weaknesses lie. work hard on them. Then start taking 1 practice test every week or two weeks.
You can try out one of our practice tests for free (link given below). The scores of our practice tests are quite indicative of the actual test scores (though the biggest advantage of practice tests is that one is able to identify the weaknesses).

Hi surabhib,
I'm sorry to hear that Test Day didn't go as well as planned. When these types of score drops occur, the two likely "causes" involve either something that was unrealistic during practice or something that was surprising (or not accounted for) on Test Day. If you can answer a few questions, then we should be able to figure this out:
When you took your CATs:
1) Did you take the ENTIRE CAT each time (including the Essay and IR sections)?
2) Did you take them at home?
3) Did you take them at the same time of day as your Official GMAT?
4) Did you ever do ANYTHING during your CATs that you couldn't do on Test Day (pause the CAT, skip sections, take longer breaks, etc.)?
5) Did you ever take a CAT more than once? Had you seen any of the questions BEFORE?
