Hi,
I reviewed the Kaplan Gmat workbook for about a week and also took the short Gmat diag test on that generic guide book (just on the verbal part, I got execent range on all my verbal diag. Did not bother on the Quant part as I realized I have not taken any math course in the last 14 years and didnt remember anything at all).
After a week of reviewing the Kaplan GMAT Mathwork book for about a week, I just took the Manhattan GMAT diagnostic exam and got a 570. I scored 35Q and 33V. Other than the Kaplan GMAT work book review for a week, I did not do any preparation at all. Since I am new to this, although I am lurking on the boards to gauge this, I am not sure what to make of my score.
My question is, based on my first score, whether my target goal 720+ is a reach or reasonable attainable with proper preparation. I am completely new to this (I am still trying to decipher all these acronyms on this board) so I apologize if I am asking rookie question. Also if you have any suggestion on how to prep for this based on my score, what books to get, which prep to take, and/or any strategy or input will be appreciated.
I am ready to hit the ground running and plan on dedicating 20 hrs of review a week.
Thank you for taking time to read this and for any input you might have for this rookie; much appreciated!

What does your timeline look like? When do you plan on taking this test? The amount you can improve correlates with how much time you have for preparation. The more you prepare, the more you can improve your score. 570-720 is a big jump but it has been done before.
