Hi All,
I recently appeared for GMAT and merely managed to score 580 with breakup Q-49 V-18 - This was heart wrenching for me as consistently i had been scoring well on my GMAT Mocks and now here I am with this score.
Nonetheless what's done is done.
Now this has made me very scared and put me in a dilemma if i can ace Verbal or not.
Please help me with few of my questions~
Post GMAT, I spoke to many of my friends who are already done with their GMAT and they have recommended me to take
EGMAT for Verbal.
1- I know i am very weak in Verbal - would
EGMAT help me to ace Verbal in 1.5 month as i have already spent a huge load of money with my coaching.
2- During the Exam i was already aware of the fact that i am just for the sake of marking the answers i was marking them - I was not sure of any answer in Verbal Part.
3- I scored 2 in IR which i was not shocked about because till the last day i did not study for IR as my "Coaching Institute" had said that it will be very easy and that i would ace it easily. -"Which did not happen in my case"
4- I went through only 1 template of "Chinese Burned" for AWA which i memorized so finely that i literally pasted it like CTR C - CTR V (Would really appreciate if any faculty could help me with this too)
Any lead and advice would be really helpful as it's been already 4 months of my preparation and seeing this score was really dis-heartening.
For GMAT i quit my job too to perform well.
Please guide me further.
Hi Sakshij0694,
First of all congraulations on a great Quant score.
E-gmat verbal online or the
e-gmat verbal live are both amazing courses that can really help you improve your scores.
However, given how close your GMAT date is, I personally do not think one should adopt any new method on the final leg of their GMAT Preparation. It may be nice to give a couple of mocks (the official ones) and work on your weaknesses, but trying something new might not work in anyone’s favor. However if you want to improve on any individual area such as Sentence Correction, you may subscribe to the individual SC course as you can finish the whole course in 10 days (with proper dedication). If however you are only looking to identify and improve on your weak areas, I would encourage you to purchase the
e-gmat scholaranium. It is without a doubt, one of the best practice tools for verbal and will indeed help you on the final leg of your preparations.
Hope this helps. All the best.
