I'm retaking the GMAT on Friday. I have a 670 now 46m/36v, which I took in early Feb. The week leading up to the exam, I did 2 GMAT Prep exams, got a 710 (47m/40v) and a 690 (47m/37v). I was disappointed by the 670 on the GMAT but I had to get my apps in so just went with that score. I've been asked to retake the GMAT by a school I've applied to.
I hadn't planned on retaking the test unless asked (or if completely rejected), so I was not studying in the interim. Once the school asked me to retake it, I began to study, which has amounted to the last 2.5 weeks. My job has given me some flexibility over the past two weeks, so I've had a good amount of time to study. I decided to focus mainly on Verbal, specifically CR, which was my weakness. I always felt strong in math so figured I'd need the least help in math and would spend about 3 days on math this week (Tues - Thurs). I did a practice test on Sunday just to see where things shake out and got a 660 (44m/38v). This is after a full week of studying Verbal and 0 time on math. On one hand I was happy that my score hadn't significantly deteriorated since it has been about 4 months since I've picked up a book, and was also happy that my verbal had improved slightly from the actual exam. My score was really strong in CR and SC but RC brought me down. I decided that before the GMAT on Friday, I'd spend a bit of time on the RC. However, taking the practice test made me realize how rusty I was on the math.
So while initially, I figured I'd spend this week honing medium and hard questions of topics I've always found challenging (work rate, work problems, combinatorics, fine tuning # properties). After reviewing my test and doing a few questions, I've come to find that I've been spending a lot of time on medium level questions, which makes me realize how rusty I am. So I decided to just hit a lot of topics (to improve speed) that are popular on the exam: yesterday I focused on fractions, decimals, percents. Today I'm doing number properties and exponents. Also need to get a good refresher on factors and multiples. and somehow need to find time for work/rate. But I don't know what to do. I have the rest of today and tomorrow and feel like there's too much material to cover. I also initially planned to use some of tomorrow to do more 700 level CR and RC just to help boost that. Seems like Verbal improvement is at a higher ranking percentage so maybe focus on that? I don't know.... What advice would you guys give?
I know over a 700 is not out of the question for me - if I wasn't under such a time crunch. Also, my unexpected rustiness in math has thrown me for a loop. I don't know what to do regarding focusing mostly on math today and tomorrow or math today and verbal tomorrow... any advice would be appreciated
note: I've done practice tests under the normal test conditions, doing all the sections, with the breaks, and all. I'm familiar with the test center, etc. I just need advice on how to optimize today and tomorrow.

Hi nycgirl212,
With your last Official Score, you were closer to a 700+ score than you probably realized, but you missed out on a few too many 'gettable' questions and lost too many points as a result. Since you're down to the last couple of days, you might be tempted to try to 'cram' in a lot of practice, but that might actually do more harm than good - especially if you 'burn out' before Test Day and are unable to perform up to your potential.
Did the School Representatives that asked you to retake the GMAT offer up any additional information about what they were looking for specifically - a particular Scaled Score or percentile in either section, for example? Or an overall score above a certain level?

I was asked to at least get a 700. So I just need to up my score just a bit - but again, that's comparing my score to an exam that I took a few months back. I know cramming wont help, but I want to try to study as much as I can over the next 1.5 days. Do you recommend I focus mostly on verbal or math tomorrow?

Hi nycgirl212,
With a Q46/V36, you have a greater opportunity to pick up points in the Verbal section than in the Quant section, but since that section is the last part of the Exam, you're more likely to be tired (and prone to making little mistakes, not taking enough notes, etc. as a result). Since you don't really have time to learn any new Tactics or master any particular areas of the Exam, you might look to Triage at certain points (make some 'trades' on Test Day). By quickly dumping a few truly hard/weird prompts, you should have enough extra time to properly answer all of the other questions in the section. Trading one really tough question (that you're probably not going to get correct anyway) so that you can be sure to correctly answer 2-3 other questions is a great 'trade' and could absolutely be enough to get you to a 700+ score.
