This is 3rd time I am taking the GMAT. The first two times I self-studied. The first time I prepared with GMAT official guide only. The second time I prepared with Manhattan Prep Quant book. And this time I prepared with Target Test Prep (TTP).
1st GMAT (2021) score: 650 V35 Q44
2nd GMAT (2022) score: 640 V38 Q41
3rd GMAT (2023) score: 660 V38 Q42
For this third time I have been studying for 6 months. On average spending 10 hours per week, and taking Official GMAT practice tests every Sunday. Below you can see my score for the GMAT practice test:
Practice Test #4: 740 V41 Q49
Practice Test #6: 680 V34 Q49 (Ran out of time and didn't do 6 verbal questions)
Practice Test #2: 710 V40 Q48
Practice Test #3: 620 V31 Q44 (didn't sleep the night before + neighbour was making a lot of noise during the exam)
Practice Test #1: 760 V45 Q49
Practice Test #5: 750 V42 Q50
Most of my scores are above 700. Before my second GMAT attempt, my practice test scores were around 750 as well. (You can see in my previous post: https://gmatclub.com/forum/720-and-750- ... 90587.html)
I am trying to identify what might be the reason that my actual GMAT score doesn't improve. All the practice tests were done in exactly the same conditions as the test, at the same time as my actual test. There was no noise in the test center and I arrived to the test center early and I was calm. I even took 3 days off from work before the exam and I rested. My goal is to get above 720 in my actual GMAT so any help would be very much appreciated!
Thank you.

Consider getting the ESR. If you share it here (after wiping any personal info), people may provide some specific suggestions as well. In case time management was an issue, using question/time markers may help.

Hi Rookie282b,
Your 3 Official Scores are remarkably similar to one another, which implies that you are 'responding' to the Exam in the same general ways each time you take it (regardless of how you might be studying or scoring on your practice CATs/mocks). By extension, you likely developed some 'bad habits' during your earlier studies that are still with you - and that are keeping you from scoring higher. With a Score Goal of 720+, we will have to define - and fix - all of these issues (and that will take some time).
1) From our prior discussions, I know that you were considering applying this year. Are you planning to apply to School this cycle - and if so, then which Schools are you interested in (and what application deadlines are you facing)?
We previously discussed the data in your ESR from your 2nd attempt, so it might be helpful to see the data from this 3rd attempt. If you purchase the ESR for this attempt, then I'll be happy to analyze it for you.
