Hi all,
I am giving my GMAT 1st attempt on 7 th of august. I have been preparing for GMAT for last one month now. My study plan was to give 10 days to quant section, 15 days to verbal section , and remaining 5 days for mock tests. I work at a corporate firm ,So my hours dedicated to study were limited to 5 hours a day.
For quant , I have gone through Manhattan strategy guides and have solved all the questions from GMAT official guide. I have also solved Advanced Quant by Manhattan.
For verbal, I have studied Manhattan strategy guides thoroughly. And I am confident that I have mastered the concepts . I have solved questions from GMAT official guide. Accuracy was 87% for SC, 78% for CR , and 70% for RC.
So far I have solved 5 mock tests. My scores for 5 mock tests are as follow:
1.Kaplan : Quant-51 Verbal-34
2.Gmatclub I : Quant-50 Verbal-32
3.Gmatclub II : Quant-51 Verbal-34
4. Official mock test I : Quant-51 Verbal-36
5.Official mock test II : Quant-51 Verbal-29
My aim is to score 730+. But despite of all efforts I can't improve my verbal score. I have mastered all the concepts and I seem to solve most of the questions correctly when I review my wrong attempts after the test. In verbal section , I am satisfied with my SC performance.
I don't have any idea how to tackle this issue regarding RC and SC. Practicing more questions just seems to be waste of time as I can solve the most of the wrong attempts while reviewing.
Please share your thoughts on how I can tackle this issue? I don't plan to appear for GMAT again. Hence this is my first and the last attempt as I want to get into university next year only and need to follow application deadlines. I want to maximize my verbal score in coming 7 days. Also kindly share the GMAT verbal split score for 730+ score given that quant score is 51.
Even a small suggestion/help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
KM

Hey, I'm not an expert but the accuracies in OGs and Mock differ. It's all about hitting 100% accuracy in the Below 700 range questions. According to me, OG questions are simple because most of the test preps or books cover similar examples and they are not timed. Whereas in mocks we come across new types of questions.
To improve CR skills follow any approach such as pre-thinking or POE etc. and apply the same in all your practice questions. LSAT questions helped me to improve my CR accuracy.

Hello, qwerty1998. A week out from your test, it is statistically improbable that you will have a eureka moment and suddenly see your Verbal performance fall into place. I also think assuming a 51 in Quant might be taking too much for granted, even though it is certainly possible, based on your mock results. (That GMAT Club 51 is particularly impressive to me.) You can check out different scoring charts on this site and elsewhere. I like this updated table for ease of use.
Whatever extra legwork you decide to put in, I would advise against cramming at the last minute, a strategy that rarely pays off and more often leads to increased anxiety on test day, followed by a decrease in performance. Many students find it more beneficial to relax in the week leading up to the test, at least in the days immediately prior.
If you are set on taking the exam in a week, though, all I have to say is good luck. Maybe a combination of advice from several members will help you in the best way.
