Hey everyone! Just finished my GMAT journey and wanted to share my experience, especially since reading others' posts helped me tremendously.
I started preparing for the GMAT in February 2024 but didn’t take it seriously until May 2024. The early months were a struggle. Balancing a full-time job with GMAT prep was like solving a complex equation with too many variables. My biggest challenge was inconsistency, which I now realize was an important lesson in time management and prioritization.
The turning point came in the last two to three months when I decided to make the GMAT my top priority. It wasn’t just about doing more practice questions, but about adopting a new approach: paying close attention to mistakes and making deliberate corrective actions.
My GMAT score improved from 645 in my initial mocks to 695 on the actual exam. Here are a few tips that worked for me, though everyone’s journey is unique:

My GMAT score improved from 645 in my initial mocks to 695 on the actual exam. Here are a few tips that worked for me, though everyone’s journey is unique:
- Quant and DI (Non-verbal sections): These were my stronger areas. The key for me was practicing a wide variety of questions and optimizing timing. Official Guides and e-GMAT question sets provided ample practice material.
- Verbal and DI (Verbal sections): This was my weakest area with the most room for improvement (from V78 to V83). GMAT Ninja’s YouTube videos helped clarify RC and CR concepts, while questions from the Official Guides and e-GMAT Scholaranium were vital for practice.
- Letting low scores on sectional tests dishearten me, especially since I was used to high scores in school.
- Postponing full mocks until I felt "100% ready." In hindsight, I should have taken them earlier to better identify and fix mistakes.
