Hello all,
I have been studying for the gmat exam for the past 4 month aiming to get +730.
I have completed:
OG - verbal + quant + general
All 10 Manhattan strategy guides
Manhattan advanced quant
Kaplan 800.

My Cat Scores:
4 month ago - Gmatprep - 670 - 67% quant and 67% verbal
2 Month ago - Manhhatan CAT 1 - 680 - 74% quant and 74% verbal
1 Week ago - Manhattan CAT 2 - 680 - 60% Quant and 84% verbal.
2 days ago - Manhattan CAT 3 - 670 - 54% Quant and 89% Verbal.

I planned to take the gmat next week but because of my low score I have decided to prospond my exam to 4 weeks from now.
In high school I excelled in math so I am very confused by the low scores and especially the decrease in quant . I feel it's partially because of low stamina and lack of concentration during the quant.

What do you suggest me to do in my 4 weeks to the exam in order to increase my quant?
Thanks, Gal.

Hi GAL064,

You can build stamina and improve your concentration by taking mock CATs including AWA and IR

1. Did you take the mock CATs including the AWA and IR?

I would recommend you to solve GMAT Prep CATs in these 4 weeks. You have one free test and you can buy two additional tests from mba.com

Analyse your mistakes thoroughly and try to dig deep.
Make an error log and note down any additional things that you learn.

While you are doing this for quants, do not neglect verbal. Make sure that you solve verbal questions too all along

In the last four tests, your Verbal score has gone up while your Quant score has seen a similar dip keeping your overall score the same. Have you been focusing solely or predominantly on Verbal and ignoring Quant? If you don't pay enough attention, it is easy to slip in a section. I suggest you to take a good look at your tests and find out why your score has been suffering. Review those topics again in which you make maximum mistakes. Don't forget to keep reviewing everything else too. Make a study plan for the four weeks in front of you. Here is a post that will help you make an appropriate study plan: https://www.gmatclub.com/forum/veritas-prep-resource-links-no-longer-available-399979.html#/2015/01 ... tudy-plan/
