22 days to go ... countdown begins

Did a GMAT Prep test today... not a great score... but my goal on doing this test was not to bother about my score but rather focus on doing a full length test with time constraints. I got 620 (Q 38, V 37)

I made 3 careless calculation errors that cost me 3 precious marks! Those 3 easy lost points could have given me a higher score in quant.... So my key takeaways on the errors I make:

  • Write clearly, and reason it out instead of thinking in my head
  • The other errors I made require review in ratios, prime factorization, algebra, and most importantly: READING A QUESTION and from that question DEVELOPING a formula. That will require more practice
I'm determined to do another hour before I get to bed... I'll start MGMAT SC guide now as that is a good way to see fast improvements on my verbal score.

I don't think my V 37 is accurate... its high actually because I saw a few repeat questions... need to practice on it diligently... doing 20 CR per day and 1-2 RC passage per day is helping me. Need to keep at it though.
