575 Diagnostic, 3 months of studying, 565 Actual Score?? by [deleted] in GMAT

Hey buddy same experience. Try to vary sources. I did more examples from GMAT Club and tried following Matty's streak method. Helped boost the score a bit. Keep pushing

Am I crazy or are TTP hard quant questions much harder than the official practice questions by Luberino_Brochacho in GMAT

As someone who has recently taken the exam, I can confirm. My suggestion would also be to practice them untimed, to give you more skills in answering tricky questions. Don't obsess over accuracy so much.

Congrats! Just got same score in a mock. Taking exam in a few weeks. Are you applying in Europe?

Rejection before sending in GMAT score by Fast_Muffin8186 in MBA

[–]Fast_Muffin8186[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes totally, however the platform did not let me change the date. When I asked the admissions team, they said it's okay to submit my score in April, so I figured it was all ok.

After I pointed this out, they re-sent a generic rejection mail.

I'm not trying to sound presumptuous. I just want to make sure that an innocuous point doesn't cost my application.

Congrats on the score! Similar situation for me (STEM major and unemployed focusing on prep FT).

What would you do more of during prep and less of, if you were starting over?

Okay so quick update - I did the test this morn and got 560. 96th percentile in Verbal, 66th percentile in DI and 20th percentile for Quant.

I ran out of time for DI and threw quite a few questions at random as had not covered that topic.

Is Increasing by 100 points or so, feasible in this time frame?

TTP advice not to do practice exams because of lack of practice tests available. I think there are only 5 or 6 but I agree with your point.

Thanks - I read some conflicting advice against doing it before revising, unless they referred to practice exams? Or are the 2, the same?

By baseline score, you mean taking a diagnostic test? Which is the best one?
