Looking for suggestions to score V40

Question

Experts, Could you please give me some advice for my GMAT retake. I am attaching my GMAT ESR.

RC really pulled you down Pranayee. How have you been preparing and has this been the trend in your mocks as well?

GmatKnightTutor · Answer

It's the RC that is really dragging that section down. I teach absorption so a bit of insight may be helpful. If it's, however, an issue with time management (I worry I'll spend too long on RC passages and just rush through them) that may require something else.

Hi Pranayee,

Since this ESR is almost 8 months, before we get to the data, 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 in total? Over the last 3 months, how many hours did you typically study each week?
2) What study materials have you used over the course of ALL of your studies? What “brands” of CATs/mocks have you used?
3) On what dates (or approximate 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,
