Hi all,
I'm new to the website since yesterday as I heard about gmatclub via YouTube.
A little background... I have recently decided that I want to pursue an MBA. It has always been in the back of my head since I've finished my under graduate degree but after 7 years of working I have finally taken the leap to go for it. For the last 6 years I live in the UK and am originally from the Netherlands. I have left my job so that for the following 3 months I can fully focus on the GMAT preparation and applications (2 months - 40hrs p/w GMAT prep, 1 month 20hrs p/w application & essays).
Now today I have completed the Diagnostic Test of the GMAT Official Guide 2019 and am slightly disappointed with the outcome but not discouraged!
My 'scores' were:
Quant
PS: Below Average
DS: Below Average
Verbal
RC: Above Average
CR: Average
SC: Below Average
I have always known that Quant would be my main weakness as I have never had an affinity with maths and was prepared for this (it's also been 15 years since I've seen a maths book). A little disappointing were the Verbal scores but it's something that I'll work on.
As a next step I would like to make my Study Plan however have no real idea on how to do this in a detailed manner that represents my current capabilities and where my ideal score lays (~700). Would any of you be able to help me make a good Study Plan based on my timescales and Diagnostic Test results? The material that I have to study are the GMAT Official Guide 2019, Verbal & Quant Review, as well as the GMAT Manhatten Prep Set & Foundations of Math.
I hope to have given all the information needed, but if not please do ask.
Thanks a lot in advance!![]()
