Hello everyone,
I have been preparing for the GMAT Focus Edition for the last two years with complete dedication. I have put in countless hours, exhausted almost every resource available, and maintained a disciplined study routine. I have attempted the exam three times, yet, my official attempt scores have only declined:
Despite this level of preparation, the results are not moving. Coming from an engineering background (NIT graduate), I never imagined I would be this stuck. I am feeling like giving up at this point, but I have R1 deadline approaching. I am ready to put my heart and soul till December and may be then I can apply to the ambitious school in R2 if I get a good score.
My goal is to score 675+ for my target programs (T15 US schools, LBS, HEC) for R1 2026 intake. At this stage, I am running out of both strategies and patience.
I am open to working with a personal tutor or coach (within budget) or receiving guidance from someone who has been through this phase and found a way forward and would like to work closely with me to understand where I am faltering. It seems I need to work in all the subjects. I am even okay if experts suggest me to switch to the GRE as I think memorization is my strength.
If you have advice, resources, or can connect me with the right person, I would deeply appreciate it.

I have put in countless hours, exhausted almost every resource available, and maintained a disciplined study routine. I have attempted the exam three times, yet, my official attempt scores have only declined:
- Feb 15, 2025 – 645 (V: 81 | DI: 81 | Q: 84)
- June 2, 2025 – 585 (V: 82 | DI: 75 | Q: 80)
- Aug 16, 2025 – 595 (V: 82 | DI: 75 | Q: 81)
- Completed the e-GMAT course and revised chapter tests multiple times as per their mentors' feedback
- Solved official GMAT questions across CR, RC, DI, and Quant three to four times through GMAT Club and e-gmat Neuron portal. From last one month I have started reviewing my error logs every week.
- Consistently practiced with Expert’s Global mocks (scoring 615–645) and scored 665 twice in GMAT official mocks and exhausted sectional mocks of verbal and DI from GMAT Club.
- Followed a routine of daily RC and CR practice since late 2024 and even practising LSAT RCs.
- Revisited Quant thoroughly and performed well in sectional tests, but failed to replicate it on test day. I found hard questions in the real exam which I can't decipher in first pass.

Consider sharing your score report. People may provide some specific suggestions based on it. You could also include any types of questions or issues (e.g. time management) you find challenging on exam day.

Hi Vaishnavi_2498,
Given the amount of time and effort you have already dedicated to the GMAT Focus, it might be worth giving the GRE a serious look. Since memorization is one of your strengths, you may find the GRE’s structure, particularly its vocabulary-heavy verbal section, better aligned with your skills.
A good first step would be to take an official GRE practice test under timed conditions. Doing so will give you a baseline score and help you see whether the GRE feels like a more natural fit. If your diagnostic score is already in a competitive range or close to it, shifting focus to the GRE could save you time and frustration. If the score is not where you would like it to be, you will still gain valuable perspective on which test is the better option for you moving forward.
Feel free to reach out with any additional questions.
