Hi Team,

Very happy to say that i got 700 in real GMAT,i made it...

For Gmat all you need is concentration and confidence. I really thank GMatLa who first initiated in encouraging me, and Santanu 76,who gave a valuable advice and guided me on the rite track.I am very thanks full to Gmat club without this i am nothing.

I wrote my first real gmat test on dec 14 2011 and i scored really very horrible.I was very depressed and felt like no i am not going to this in any part of my life.Till then i was a silent visitor of GMat Club.I thought to post me real score and get help of great people from here and as i thought i got.

Jan 26 i started my preparation and scheduled my real gmat on feb 25th. Hardly one month.

OG 10,11,12 complete.

For my second preparation i did each and every problem solving,ds,sc,rc and cr from gmat club.Gmat Club was the only source.

After completing all questions from gmat club,i was asked to take GMAT Prep test by santanu 76,

Gmatprep: around 600+
i carefully observed my presence of mind in doing each problem and analyzed my skills in each section and presented a debrief to santanu 76.
GMatPrep2 again 630+
Platinum G Mat free test 680
GMAT Prep (reinstalled) 680
GMAT prep2 (reinstalled ) 470

omg! i am going down again,wats happening with me,i was in panic and posted again.Confidence and calm in last moment is very important for writing your test. If you think you can do,you can really do it Wat ever it is ,I believed in me.

On the day of exam :

I scheduled my exam at 12,reached center 1 hour ahead and was telling 1000 times inside me if i remain calm i can do it.AWA was a pleasant breeze
after writing quans i was not able to judge my performance but i wanted to concentrate on verbal more than wat i did in quans...i was able to finish quans in time.

Verbal CR and Sc was ok and Rc i felt bit tough,cos i am relatively a slow reader, i cannot read fast,my eyes would pain a lot,so decided to take less time for CR and SC and more on RC. However i was able to complete each question in rite time until i got that one big RC paragraph in almost end of the verbal section.Still i made it to give up best educated guess,cos i didnt want to concetrate in one single paragraph and leave almost 8 question at the back. In the lat i had 5 mins with 5 question left. I was able to finish just rite in time.

I was so much excited to see my score 700 (Q49V37)

Very happy.I also thank my husband who stood behind me in every step i took

Thank you Santanu 76 and Gmatla and ofcourse Vailad

Many many congratulations, Vaishnavi:)

Great job - your perseverance has paid off - +1 kudos from me!

700 is a pretty good score - probably the highest you got even counting your mock tests?:)

Very happy for you...

Waiting for your detailed debrief in the 'Share GMAT Experience' forum.
