For many Indian MBA applicants, the default dream has long been a top US MBA. But as career goals, visa considerations, timelines, and global mobility priorities evolve, more candidates are seriously considering MBA programs in Europe.

Hello,
I am applying Rotterdam School of Management -Marketing Master. Unfortunately, I got 600. Q50 86%, V22 31%. Should I retake GMAT? I only studied about 2 weeks, mainly quant and sentence correction. But the hardest part in the exam was the Reading Comprehension part for me. How much weeks should I study in order to increase verbal? What should I do to reach 700? How much increase in my verbal will help me? Thank you !

Hi senremi
Congrats on the Q50 in Quant.
According to me, the first step would be to order the ESR. Once you have the ESR
you will be able to analyze which section has caused the score to drop. Once you
have the ESR, the experts on the forum will be able to give you the best way to
proceed and maximize your score.
Unfortunately, if Reading comprehension is your weakest section, it is the most
difficult section to improve in a short span of time. IMO, your best bet is to
aquatint yourself with the basics and apply them on the official questions. Try
solving 3-4 passages a day and analyze them regularly. Specific to Reading
Comprehension, this is a post which you should definitely go through
https://gmatclub.com/forum/gmat-club-s- ... 83101.html
Work on your SC and CR and try and improve your score to the maximum possible
extent in these sections. So addressing your main question on how to improve to 700,
you will need to push your Verbal score to V35 if you manage to replicate your Quant
performance.
Hope this helps you!

Hi senremi,
Many Test Takers spend 3 months (or more) of consistent study time before they hit their 'peak' scores. The fact that you scored 600 with just 2 weeks of study shows that you're already a reasonably strong critical thinker (the average score on the Official GMAT hovers around 540-550 most years) - so if you put in the proper, focused study you could potentially score significantly higher.
1) What application deadline(s) are you facing?
2) Going forward, how many hours do you think you can consistently study each week?
GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
