Hey Sai!

Congratulations on the 720, especially the V45 which is simply outstanding! The V45 is particularly impressive because you started with a V28 – that’s a tremendous jump and must have been a major contributor to the overall score improvement of 120 points.

Such success stories are always inspiring since they reinforce the belief we have in ourselves and our product. Performances like these really motivate us to go the extra mile and innovate our offerings.

You mentioned our mentorship experience. It was really fulfilling to see you stick to the customized game plan we discussed. I always mention to my students that once we decide upon a strategy, the results you get depend a lot on how closely you adhere to the game plan discussed during the mentoring sessions.

For instance, with you I discussed issues such as time management over the 4 quartiles in Verbal and getting comfortable with 700+ level questions – by first focusing on accuracy and approach and then on the timing aspect. You stuck to that plan. You first improved on 700+ levels for specific areas that I wanted you to focus on (such as Modifiers, Verb Tenses, Assumption Family in CR etc.) from the extra official resources I provided (using our consolidated dump – this contained official questions above and beyond the OG such as Verbal Reviews, GMAC Paper Test, Advanced GMAT etc.). Then you took enough sectional mocks from Whiz Quiz to get the time management issue under check. Getting the accuracy high while not overshooting on time is about both knowing when to take risks on which parts of the Verbal section (using our 75-25 tactic) as well as patiently reducing average time taken per question over a series of quizzes – which means strategically customizing our targets for every quiz - a feature that can be easily used through Whiz Quizzes.

The following screenshot shows the final version of how you did really well on the final one of this series of quizzes (83% skill score in SC and 100% in CR), especially laudable given that this quiz contained mostly difficult questions.
