Re: What kind of score improvement can I expect? [#permalink]
Thank you all for the responses. Are any of these courses designed specifically for making improvements in the upper range of GMAT scores? I'm sure that the techniques from going from a 550 to a 620 are different than going from a 690 to 760. Thanks for all the suggestions.

Hi brocoe, there cannot be any courses designed specifically for making improvements in the upper range of GMAT scores.

There are courses designed to take you to the upper range of GMAT. We often do get calls from people who' have already gotten in the higher 600s or lower 700s, but want to improve further. Inevitably, there line of argument is: I already know what it takes to get a 700 on GMAT. So, I now want to learn only the delta that can propel my score from 700 to 750+.

Unfortunately no one can have a perfect answer to this, because that delta (that could propel score from 700 to 750+) is different for each candidate.

So, whichever course you do, be patient; you would perhaps already know 80% of what you learn as part of the course; however, the quantum jump in score will come from the balance 20% new that you learn in that course.

To avoid plugging books, I'd like to talk about strategies instead. The two sides of Sentence Correction are:

1. the grammatical concepts (parallelism, subject-verb agreement, etc.)
2. the logic of it

If you're getting a 690, you're probably pretty solid on the grammatical concepts that the GMAT teaches. But, how comfortable are you with the logic of SC? You need to think of SC as a puzzle, with the central question being "how do I convey the meaning of this sentence most clearly?"

I think you should follow, its logic, will help you understand or parallel
