Hi Everyone,
I am soo worried that when I first took first GMAT mock test. I scored only 250
I have gone through many posts in this forum and thought to focus on either quant or verbal, whichever I score less. But the overall score doesn't seem so good. So I need suggestions on how to improve my score. I have seen various plans of e-gmat, magoosh, manhattan gmat etc... but I am not sure which one will give me confidence and good score improvement if I follow.
Verbal questions I am able to face them but when I face quant questions my heartbeat raises a bit even if I get this low score I wanna take it as a challenge
I saw there are many experts in this forum, please someone help me with this problem
Regards,
Anila

Dear anila1632,
I would suggest opt for trial accounts of all the courses you mentioned and check which one suits you better.
Quant is all about Practice and Practice.
You need to do atleast 20-30 questions of Quant everyday on weekdays and a couple more on weekends. Try to make a habit of doing questions on this forum regularly.
For Verbal, I would suggest go ahead and buy MGMAT Series and OG. Try to understand the concept and the approach and then implement the same while doing any question.
Remember, if you have your determination intact, you can slowly and gradually reach to your dream score.
Take every failure as an opportunity to learn more.
Good Luck

Hi Anila,
Few points which I have advised to students in your position earlier too..
the score in both Quant and Verbal requires a lot of improvement BUT good thing is that you have just started with your preps so there should be a good scope of improvement..
the best judge for taking an online course or an inperson classes or self study is you and would depend on your ability to grasp things...
there are many who have done self study and reached their score and there are very many who have gone through couple of courses and are still there from where they started..
You have following at your disposal..
1) self study... If you can pick finer points when you have been given theory or some videos and notes..
2) online course.. if you can learn from the videos and few techniques put across via video and othe rmaterial..
3) in person classes.. you have a chance to clear your doubts in class one to one but ofcourse the time in a class is limited and you do not have to be a person shy to ask doubts in front of others. And a lot depends on the type of instructors and courses where you are staying..
4) Private tutor.. a lot depends on instructor but you can ask doubts and a lot of attention gets paid on your preparation.
If you have to invest, invest wisely because more than money you are investing your time. take some time, do your homework and select what is best for you. do not get carried away by reviews or persuasion without giving it a proper thought..
The most important is to realize your weaknesses and what it will take to overcome.

Chetan
In that, first month -> its like quant and verbal for every two alternate days in a week. so when 1 month is completed, i will take another mock test. if there is any score improvement then i will continue with current plan and try to solve 500-600 or even high level questions. if not I try to modify the plan.
