Hi there,
I wanted suggestions on how to improve my score and reach at least a 680 on the GMAT if not a 700+ score.
I have taken the gmat thrice- 2013: 590, 2014: 530, 2017: 620 (Q44, V32).
I am planning to retake the GMAT around the 15th of May. My last GMAT score was a 620 (Q44, V32) but in my practice tests I was consistently scoring around 640-660. This time I am focussing not on doing a lot of questions, but concentrating on the ones I got wrong. My latest test score was a 640 (GMAT prep exam 2) Q48, V29. Please help me with the following dilemmas:
1. Strangely, in all my 3 GMAT attempt I have consistently scored a 44 in Quant whereas in my tests I never score below a 48.
2. In my recent verbal test my weakest was RC (26th percentile), then SC (68th) and CR (78th)- How do you suggest I can improve in Verbal?
3. I have never scored anything near a 700 in my practice tests and I have decided to book the date for the 15th of May only if I get a high score in one of the tests. Is it possible? Is something missing from my preparation?
Looking forward to valuable suggestions.
Cheers!

Hi Kangaroo1,
Since you've studied for (and taken) the GMAT 3 times, I have some questions about how you've been studying and your goals:
Studies:
1) How long did you study for each attempt?
2) What study materials did you use (and which practice CATs) for each attempt?
3) When you take your CATs, do you take the FULL CAT each time (with the Essay and IR sections)?
Goals:
4) When are you planning to apply to Business School?
5) What Schools are you planning to apply to?
GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
