At one point, she believed GMAT wasn’t for her. After scoring 595, self-doubt crept in and she questioned her potential. But instead of quitting, she made the right strategic changes. The result? A remarkable comeback to 695. Check out how Saakshi did it.

I need to get my quant to at least the 60th percentile in order to reach my target score. How much of a move is it from a 38 to 42? Are we talking 3-5 questions answered correctly instead of incorrectly? I understand the scoring on the test is adaptive and part of a large algorithm, however I'm wondering just how much of a move it is from the 50th to 60th percentile in quant.
What seems to really bring my score down is when I get three questions in a row wrong. I'm going to try hard to manage my time and eliminate stupid mistakes.
Can anyone provide me with some first hand experiences?

Hi,
many ppl followed these two post mentioned below to reach their target score. Please go through this.
1. https://gmatclub.com/forum/a-way-to-increase-from-q35-40-to-q-138750.html
2.https://gmatclub.com/forum/the-final-climb-quest-for-q-50-from-q47-129441.html
It is not a huge move from 38 to 42. All you need to do is work more on concept understanding, and try to get most of 500 to 650 level problems correct. You will get there.
Analyze your mocks results, see where you go wrong and work on it. Use error logs to track your progress.

Thanks for the information. I actually started following that plan about 2 weeks ago. I think I'm on the right track. I'm taking another MGMAT CAT this weekend so we'll see what happens. In terms of actual questions though, how much of a move is it from 38-42? Would you estimate it to be 5 more questions correct or 10?
