Question

Hi,
Appearing for Gmat in the 2nd week of September, any suggestions as to what should my approach be for it, it is going to be my 3rd attempt and my last score was 690, hoping to improve it signficantly. Out of mocks and just have 4 mocks left, what should I do for the remaining test prep?
Suggestions are welcome.

Consider getting the ESR. If you share it here (after wiping any personal info), people may provide some specific suggestions as well. In case you've run out of official questions and have the Official-Guide (you can get an e-version from the MBA website), see whether it came with an online exclusive question bank you can activate/use.

Hi AmeyPatil9696,

Before I can offer you the specific advice that you’re looking for, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:

Studies:
1) On what dates did you take each of your Official GMATs and how did you score (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores fore each attempt)?
2) How long have you studied in total? How many hours do you typically study each week?
3) What study materials have you used over the course of all of your studies? What “brands” of CATs/mocks have you used?
4) 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:
5) What is your overall goal score?
6) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?

If you took your Official GMAT at a Test Center, then you might also choose to purchase the Enhanced Score Report. While the ESR doesn’t provide a lot of information, there are usually a few data points that we can use to define what went wrong on Test Day (and what you should work on to score higher). If you purchase the ESR, then I'll be happy to analyze it for you.

To improve your quant skills, you may find it helpful to engage in topical quant practice.

For example, let’s say that you want to practice Number Properties. You can do so by answering 50 or more questions just from Number Properties: LCM, GCF, units digit patterns, divisibility, remainders, etc.

After each problem set, thoroughly analyze your incorrect questions. For example, if you got a remainder question wrong, ask yourself why. Did you make a careless mistake? Did you not properly apply the remainder formula? Was there a concept you did not understand in the question?

By carefully analyzing your mistakes, you will be able to fix your weaknesses efficiently and, in turn, improve your GMAT quant skills. Number Properties is just one example; follow this process for all quant topics.
