Hi,

I scored a pretty low score in my first MGMAT. 520 (Q36,V25). I had previously given a GMAT Prep CAT- 560 (Q43, V24).
I had studied very casually for a month after the GMAT Prep CAT and obtained this result. A bit disappointed, considering i did good in the Quant section on the first test. But i understand now that i need to dedicate myself for GMAT fully. Can anyone let me know the hours i need to put in if i need a score of 700+. I am planning to give my GMAT on 4th September.

I believe its not too late. Need some inspiration.

Please HELP!!!!!

Hey ps2007,

Casual studying won't be enough to get you to where you want to go. You need a study plan that you can stick to. With your test date in September, here is a customized 2-3 month study plan that can help boost your score: https://www.gmatpill.com/gmat-practice-t ... study-plan

Use this as a guideline. You don’t have to follow it exactly but the structure of the study plan should be the same structure that you take in your approach. This helps to optimize your retention and learning.

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 sample SC video to help you start your journey: https://www.gmatpill.com/sentencecorrect ... ythons.mp4

Best of luck - we are here to help.

I too agree that you should probably take a course. I really like GMAT Pill's approach in general, and have actually taken a trial course from them and liked it.
