Hi Everyone,
Today I'm really upset and in need of some support. I'm not sure if it's advice I'm looking for or just some motavation.
I have not taken the actual exam yet, but as my post implies my first practice test was a 380. I've been working hard for a long time now and I've managed to get my practice test score up to a 630.
Score History
V Q
31 17 390 Kaplan
30 32 530 Kaplan
26 33 510 Kaplan
32 32 550 Kaplan
24 33 510 Kaplan
34 36 590 Kaplan
37 35 600 Kaplan
27 33 530 Kaplan
31 39 580 Pton
36 40 630 Mgmat
35 36 600 Mgmat
Between the past Mgmat and the most recent I put in 5 weeks of solid studying (only the quant section) only to turn around at end up 4 pts lower then the previous. My number properties in the first Mgmat test were 17% correct. I studied this and the second test it went up to 57%, however, other areas decreased. I'm not sure what to think?
Does anyone have any advice? suggestions?
I am determined to hit the 700 mark, but I feel like I'm not improving like I should be...

hey giantswan do not be disheartened for MGMAT quant is far tougher than the real thing. I scored 48Q in my actual GMAT and consistently score around the 49 mark in gmat prep. Last week I took my first MGMAT and my quant score went down to 46 - an unheard of score for me. That test was really tough; much tougher than the real thing.
A 630 in MGMAT will equate to a 660 in the real thing.
Having said that, if you are aiming at 700, I'd suggest you get the MGMAT quant books (all of them) and solve the problems from the book and the related OG guide problems. These will get you some terrific focused practice. Do not ignore anything, in fact cover all the basics - algebra, word problems, geometry, inequalities etc.
Also, I think you have plenty of scope for improvement in verbal - in fact if you can push your consistent mid 30s verbal score to 40, you'd get a 700 score pretty easily.
Good luck.
