Hi Mariana86,

I'll be happy to advise, but I'd like to know a bit more about your studies and timeline/goals:

1) What is your goal score?
2) When are you planning to take the GMAT?
3) When are you planning to apply to Business School?

4) What were your Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores on each of these CATs?
5) Did you take the ENTIRE CAT each time (including the Essay and IR sections)?
6) Do you have trouble finishing any of the sections on time (and do you have to guess on questions just to finish?)?

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
Rich

Hi Mariana86,

Since you've taken just 3 CATs in 4 months, I'd like to clarify some details about your studies:

1) You say that you took several 'breaks' (at up to 2 weeks per break) during your studies. Ignoring those breaks, how much actual study time did you put in? Did you start taking those breaks after you finished your Course?
2) How much study time do you spend during a typical week?
3) How did you come up with the pacing 'guidelines' that you're following?

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
Rich
