Hello everyone,
I am planning to take the GMAT soon. I am targeting a score of around 680. I have given all 4 preps and 2 MGMAT tests so far, the scores are as below (in order as taken):
1) GMAT Prep 1 : 560 (Q43, V25)
2) GMAT Prep 2: 550 (Q38, V28)
3) MGMAT 1: 570 (Q37, V31)
4) GMAT Prep 3: 600 (Q37, V35)
5) MGMAT 2: 620 (Q37, V37)
6) GMAT Prep 4: 640 (Q44, V34), few repeated questions
My scores seem to hover around the 620 mark. I cannot figure out what I am missing. I have followed the these materials:
1) OG 2015
2) MGMAT SC Guide
3) Kaplan Math Workbook (Found it very basic hence useless)
4) GMAT Question Pack 1
5) Other unofficial sources
If anybody can help me understand this scenario and let me know how I can improve my score, I will be grateful. I will be happy to provide more information if asked to.
Thanks

Hey todi123,
The fact that you have studied for so long, and have seen fluctuations in your scores might indicate a problem with your study habits.
As you study, we recommend that you focus on quality over quantity.
Doing hundreds of hundreds of more questions without really understanding the concepts or the booby traps that you’re falling into will not necessarily get you where you want to be.
Try going back to previous questions and seeing if you can answer them with ease. The more you can answer correctly, the more likely it is that you understand the material.
As you study, we recommend that you focus on one particular subsection for multiple consecutive days before moving onto the next. You can see this in our study plan where we recommend 5 days on nothing but SC -- before moving onto CR and then RC.
Here is a customized 2-3 month study plan that can help boost your score: https://www.gmatpill.com/gmat-practice-t ... study-plan
Here is a sample SC video to help you start your journey: https://www.gmatpill.com/sentencecorrect ... ythons.mp4
