Here I am again... 
After spending a lot of time debating whether I should retake the GMAT or not, I decided that I should give it one more shot. Would appreciate answers to the questions below and just some advice/motivation...
Materials that I have:
ManhattanPrep Guides 1 through 9 (+ online CAT's)
OG 2019
All official CAT's
I did take EmpowerGMAT Total ScoreBooster course before as well.
Question: Should I update my books to newer versions? I don't think many questions changed...
Timeline:
When studying for the first time, I did:
Week 1: general overview of everything and first official CAT.
Week 2 - Week 5: Focus on Quant, ending in an official CAT.
Week 6 - Week 9: Focus on Verbal, ending in an official CAT.
Week 10 - Week 13: 1 CAT each week, study weak areas from each CAT.
Question: Should I follow the same plan?
Took GMAT CLUB's Free Quant CAT, attached the pdf. 50/51.... I am shocked... I am going to take a real CAT, but I didn't expect this.
Here is an old post where I summarized my GMAT experience in 2019: https://gmatclub.com/forum/cancelled-69 ... l#p2248539
Thanks!

Hi Nikolay,
It's been about 1.5 years since we last exchanged emails, but I want to start by reiterating that your 710/Q48 is still an OUTSTANDING Score - and with it, you can comfortably apply to any Business Schools that interest you. As such, a retest is probably not necessary. Considering how this year's application cycle is a bit different (because of the worldwide impact of Covid-19) to those cycles in prior recent years, you would likely find it beneficial to speak with an Admissions Expert about your current overall profile and plans. There's a Forum full of those Experts here:
https://gmatclub.com/forum/ask-admissio ... tants-124/
If you are certain that you want to retest (and again, that's probably not necessary), then the logical next step would be for you to take a NEW CAT/mock, so that we can get a sense of your current GMAT skills, strengths and weaknesses. If you are considering taking the At-home GMAT for this next attempt, then it's worth noting that the 'format' of that Test is "fixed" (Quant, then Verbal - with no break in-between, then an optional 5-minute break, then IR and no AWA). Having to take Quant and Verbal in one sitting is challenging for most Test Takers (especially if you've been taking your CATs with an 8-minute break between sections). If you want to take the At-home GMAT, then you will have to be really rigorous about how you take your CATs going forward (and take them in the exact same fashion in which you will have to take the At-home GMAT).

Hi almazovniko,
710 is a very nice score! Regarding your plan moving forward, my main question is if you were to use the same materials that you used for your previous GMAT, is it safe to say that you will essentially be repeating the same questions over again?
