Hi eled34,
YES - if you want to reschedule an existing Test Date Appointment, then you can push it 'back' or 'forward' in the calendar. There is a specific fee structure (based on when you log in to reschedule) so you can save more money if you make that choice further in advance of your existing Test Date). Obviously, all of this depends on the availability of appointments. From June through December, many GMAT Test Centers tend to be 'busy' - so the number of available spots on any given day will be limited.
Before I can offer you any additional advice for your studies, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:
Studies:
1) How long have you studied? How many hours do you typically study each week?
2) What study materials have you used so far?
3) On what dates did you take EACH of your CATs/mocks and how did you score on EACH (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?
Goals:
4) What is your overall goal score?
5) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?
GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
Rich
Thanks, Rich!
I am using
Magoosh. I am leaning toward switching from the
Magoosh Beginner's guides (general and Quant-focused), which I have been focusing on so far, to the
Magoosh Advanced guide. My strength continues to be Verbal, and my weakness continues to be Quant (see scoring breakdowns below). The piece that most appeals to me of the Advanced guide is the
Manhattan Prep Advanced Quant book, despite the 70th percentile Quant pre-requisite stated in the book.
4/10: CAT 1: 620 (Q38, V36)
4/20: CAT 2: 580 (Q37, V32)
4/30: CAT 3: 630 (Q40, V36)
5/9: CAT 4: 660 (Q44, V36)
My goal is to score 730 or higher and I have completed approximately 200 study hours in the last 6 weeks, with no plans of slowing down for the next 2 months. I have also watched every
Magoosh Quant video lesson, but have flagged many for review and am now rewatching those. I will likely apply Round 1 for 2023 assuming I can get a 700+ (and ideally 730+) by September. If I make great progress by early July/late June, though, I will consider jumping on a spontaneous appointment if available. I am on a gap year and, because of COVID-19, GMAT studying is my sole focus right now. Dream schools would be HBS or Stanford but I recognize how much of a long shot they are despite having a potentially ideal application profile (3.8 undergrad GPA from Kelley School, i-banking for 2 years, backpacker 1 year, endurance athlete...)
Onward and upward!
