Hello experts,
Please find attached my ESR.
I appeared for GMAT in Dec'19. I am planning to re-take the test in early July with a goal of 700+. I had studied:
Aristotle SC
Powerscore CR
OG 2019
Manhattan Advanced Quant
Kaplan Advanced Quant question set
Manhattan Prep tests (range 640-690, V 29-34, Q 45-47)
GMATClub tests (helped a lot for Quant)
Official GMAT practice exams 1-2 (710,710)
Found Manhattan guides too lengthy and also boring to read.
I was already good in quants and should have done more practice for verbal (that's what I think). I took a gap so that now I could start afresh starting with verbal fundamentals and then continuing practice from official sources. I would be grateful if someone on this forum could help me understand the best way to proceed further. It would be helpful if some insights can be generated from ESR in terms of timing, accuracy, and attempts for different sections of the Verbal section.
ESR mentions "Analysis / Critique and Construction / Plan" sections in CR. Can someone tell what CR topics actually comes under these?

Hi Rakshit,
First off, a 670/Q51 is a strong Score, so it could be enough to get you into your first-choice School. As such, a retest might not be necessary. Depending on the Schools that you plan to apply to, you would likely find it beneficial to speak with an Admissions Expert about your overall profile. There's a Forum full of those Experts here:
https://gmatclub.com/forum/ask-admissio ... tants-124/
There's no harm in continuing to study for the GMAT with the goal of scoring higher, but before we get to the data in your ESR, I have a few questions about your prior studies and goals:
1) How long did you study before taking the Official GMAT? How many hours did you typically study each week?
2) On what dates did you take EACH of your CATs/mocks and how did you score on EACH (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?
3) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?
GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
Rich
