Opinion on Progress?

Question

Took CAT2 today. Felt rushed and unprepared on the quant..guessed on some and didn't answer the last question. Verbal felt great, but I missed a bunch in a row during one stretch of it. Anyway, here's my progress. the IR section was repeated from CAT1, so take that one with a grain of salt (although I didn't remember much of it).

take a look at the attached screenshots of my scores...let me know if i'm on the right track. i didn't feel very good about this one at all in general (thanks to the quant).

still would like to shoot for 700...test day is 2 months away.  EMPOWERgmatRichC

Hi Travis,

Based on these score reports, over the course of 3 weeks you raised your Overall score 60 points and your Quant Scaled Score 7 points, so it certainly looks like you're making some really nice progress overall. With 2 months to go, you still have plenty of time to study, hone your skills and improve even more. As you continue to study/practice, you'll build up a 'library' of past questions in your memory, so that when you come across similar questions in the future you should be able to answer those questions faster. In real simple terms, keep up the good work.

Pretty nice progress you have there. I'm sure you'll get to your goal score if you just keep on going the way you've been going until now

I wish I had such studying skills !

Hey OP,

Looks like you are progressing quite nicely. If you can get to a point where you are not rushed on Quant, I am sure that alone will improve your score.

I would suggest signing up for Veritas Prep for $50 and getting the seven practice exams that come with it. When you do these exams, it will tell you for each question what percentage of people get them correct, how long you take to answer them relative to the average, and will tell you what areas you need to work on to improve your score. This is all very useful information which will help focus your study strategy. I would take one practice exam each week and use the study session after your practice exam to review the questions and concepts that you got incorrect.

Also, when taking practice exams, I would try to simulate the test day experience as much as possible. Write the entire exam (AWA and IR included), do it in a quiet environment similar to the test center. This will help you focus and mentally prepare you for the test day experience.

Good luck!
