Hi everyone,
Just started my journey to a 700+ score, starting with a 640 without any knowledge of what the GMAT was. After reading some things, it's given me confidence that a 700+ is possible!
I have a question though: my goal is to apply R1 to HBS, Stanford, Sloan, and possibly Wharton. Deadlines are roughly around September 15th for these.
I scored a 46Q and 33V, yielding me a 650, on my second practice test after a week of just doing a lot of questions (which clearly didn't help... I think I need to actually learn) I ordered some MGMAT books but they have yet to get here.
So, with that being said, I saw a thread that said to schedule a test for 30 days in advance if you are within 60 points of your target score! Since I'm at a 650, does that mean I should schedule it now? I am obviously not 100% positive that I can get my score to a 700 in just 30 days, and I don't want to have to waste my money.
Thanks, all advice is much appreciated.
edit: in the verbal section, I believe I only got 2 CR questions wrong, with the most being from SC.
I haven't studied at all for quant, I got a few questions wrong that were just stupid mistakes, and the rest were tricky problems that I would now know how to do.![]()
