How long it takes to get 645 from 595 score?

The honest answer is: it depends on why you're at 595.
A 50-point jump to 645 is very achievable, but the timeline can range from 6 weeks to 4+ months depending on two things:
1. Is the gap a content issue or an execution issue?
- If you're getting questions wrong because of conceptual gaps (shaky algebra, unfamiliar CR question types, weak Data Insights skills, etc.) you need structured content study. That takes longer but the gains are durable. Expect 8–16 weeks of consistent work.
- If your practice accuracy is solid but your mock scores are lower than expected, that's usually a timing and pressure issue, not a knowledge gap. That can improve much faster — sometimes 3–5 weeks of targeted timed practice makes a meaningful difference.
2. How many hours per week can you realistically study?
Students who study 10–15 hours per week consistently tend to improve faster than those cramming 30 hours one week and nothing the next. Consistency beats intensity.
A rough benchmark: most students see 50–100 points of improvement in their first 2 months of structured study. Going from 595 to 645 is on the lower end of that range, which is encouraging — it means you likely don't need a complete overhaul, just targeted work on your weakest section(s).
The fastest path: figure out whether Quant, Verbal, or DI is dragging your score, then go deep on that one area rather than spreading attention evenly.
