First mock 460 - what now? 03 Jul 2021, 03:37

Hello everyone!

I've just took a first mock test from Gmat Official Practice and scored 460 (V21, Q33, IR4)

I must admit that I didn't have enough time to solve all the questions from IR and I had to choose whatever answer for the last 3 questions.

My goal is to score 600 or more and I have around 4 months of studying with around 3-4 hours per day during week and 5-6 hours per day on the weekends.

I have OG 2021, Manhattan Set (6th edition) and Manhattan Math And Verbal Foundation.

I'm also considering subscribing to Gmat Whiz or E-gmat for verbal and TTP for Quant.

Would you guys pick subscriptions over books? And if yes, which platform?

I don't know what to do now, what strategy should I take?

Thank you!

Hi taradejna,

Many GMATers are unhappy with their initial practice scores, but you really shouldn't be. That 460 is just a measure of your skills right now - and you'll improve on that result over time as you learn more about the content, Tactics and little 'secrets' of the Exam. A Score Goal of 600+ is achievable in the 4-month timeframe that you have described - but you will have to hone some specific Quant and Verbal skills to consistently earn that type of Score. Thankfully, the GMAT is a consistent, predictable Exam, so you CAN train to score at a higher level. In addition, with a Goal of 600, you do not need to correctly answer any questions that you think are too hard or too weird - but you will have to keep the little mistakes to a minimum on everything else.

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:

1) How long have you studied so far - or are you just starting?
2) Are you planning to take the At-home GMAT or are you planning to take your GMAT at a Test Facility?
3) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
Rich

If possible try TTP trial. You won't regret it! you don't need to see another prep course for verbal. Their verbal course is too good to ace a lucrative score in verbal as well as in quant
