Hello folks,
I have my GMAT on 28th July (4 days from now) and I have given 5 tests to gauge my preparation..
They are as below:

GMAT prep 1 - 550
GMAT prep 2 - 670
Princeton - 680
Kaplan Free online test - 670
GMAT prep 1 (repeat) - 710 (Quant 50, Verbal - 38)

I would be glad if someone could point towards what should I do in the last 4 days to keep up/improve my performance of the latest GMAT prep test...


Thanking in anticipation..

Hi Motleyfocus,

As such it would be difficult to suggest a magic 'mantra' to shoot up your score beyond 710. But if you are touching 710, then in my perspective 730-750 is achievable with a dash of luck :-D .

My scores in last week were ranging from 680 to 720 and I appeared for the actual GMAT test with the belief that I can go beyond 720. I was attaining the same score of 50 in quant. English section was the Achilles' heel and my score was varying there. I tried to achieve uniformity in my english score, but to no avail. I appeared for the test with a positive mindset expecting it would be MY day and it was as I scored 730!.

So just believe in yourself, have some coffee/energy drinks between breaks to keep your mind very alert and lookout for tricky elements in GMAT questions.....all the best to you and wish you hit the bull's eye on 28th.....
