Hello,
I took the GMAT on 8th December and scored a 670 (Q48, V34). Section wise breakdown as follows:
Verbal: CR: 61st percentile RC: 76th percentile SC: 68th percentile
Quant: PS- 66th percentile DS: 63th percentile
I mostly studied on my own but was a part of multiple online groups and had also joined a bootcamp.
I want to retake the exam by the third week of March (here's hoping) but I'm really not sure how to go ahead. Should I start from scratch by revisiting concepts and solving questions of varying difficulties? Or should I opt for any other strategy?
Please help! Thank you.

Hello icantanymore,
A score of 670 in the GMAT is decent and also tells the entire story about how well prepared you are for the GMAT official test and how to change the gear now to meet the target score.
You can schedule a Free counseling session for 20 mins with one of our experts:https://calendly.com/mathrevolution/1-on-1-session for detailed advice on your current study plans.
A couple of things that can be a noticeable barrier to your scores would be some or all of the below.
• Inefficiency by using time-consuming Conventional method to tackle DS and PS questions still
• No expert support (maybe) who can tutor, analyze, and guide you during your learning, especially on hard level questions while stably hitting middle-level questions.
• Not well aligned with time to solve questions.
Since we are a math expert, we will recommend going through our post on the GMAT club: Breakdown of GMAT math questions and types: https://gmatclub.com/forum/overview-of- ... l#p1641411.
We recommend that you must learn the Variable Approach for solving DS questions and the IVY approach for solving PS questions in order to improve your accuracy and save time while solving the question types.
You must schedule your day smartly to revise the topics and also practice more questions. Register with Math Revolution https://www.mathrevolution.com/member/signup to get access to our 7-day full on-demand course (27 topics, 490 subtopics, and 1,500 questions) for free trial lessons.
700+ level questions https://www.mathrevolution.com/gmat/questionbank are separately available, too. Start with the learning of the concepts. Make a habit of taking notes during the initial learning of the concepts.
Also, make a note of various possible combinations to achieve a score of 700+. The possible scores will help you track your performance after taking the mock or practice test. It will also help you maintain balance in both the sections, and you will always be in a great position to allot the study hours to a specific area accordingly.
Since you are close to your target score of 700+, 1-on -1 tutoring can also be helpful to you(https://www.mathrevolution.com/gmat/online_02tutoring).
We appreciate your time and patience in reading this reply.
Should you need any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us at [email protected].
Success is within your reach.
Good luck!

Hi icantanymore,
First off, a 670/Q48 is a strong Score, so it could be enough to get you into your first-choice School. As such, a retest might not be necessary. Depending on the Schools that you plan to apply to, you would likely find it beneficial to speak with an Admissions Expert about your overall profile and plans. Those Experts should be able to answer your Admissions questions and help define the specific areas of your profile that could use some improvement. There's a Forum full of those Experts here:
https://gmatclub.com/forum/ask-admissio ... tants-124/
Before I can offer you the specific advice that you’re looking for, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:
Studies:
1) How long have you studied in total? How many hours did you typically study each week?
2) What study materials have you used so far?
3) On what dates (or approximate dates) did you take EACH of your CATs/mocks and how did you score on EACH (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?
Goals:
4) What is your overall goal score?
5) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?
While the ESR doesn’t provide a lot of information, there are usually a few data points that we can use to define what went wrong on Test Day (and what you should work on to score higher). Since you purchased the ESR, then I'll be happy to analyze it for you. If you would rather not publicly post your ESR, then you can feel free to PM it directly to me.
