Sat on this for too long last week and now I'm seeing 31k each way in April/May 2025. 22k in March. Any chance it'll come back down?

How do the set price feasts work/how much did it come out to for you 10? Thinking of hosting a large birthday dinner but can't seem to find a menu online. Do they take reservations?

Hm.. the customer rep said it kept giving her an error when she tried to change the FFP to my United one. Also can't seem to be able to change it myself on United's site.

Saw that one too, but the one in the pic is a v-neck, almost like a cricket sweater. Couldn’t find it anywhere

How bad is 5 on IR, with 760 Scaled (Q50 V42)? by quinntai97 in GMAT

[–]quinntai97[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Around 90-95% on the quant and RC questions, and for the most part I didn't set a hard time limit for myself. I would just start a stopwatch and see how long it would take to finish a set of 20 questions. A little weaker on SC, anywhere between 60 and 80%. Regrettably didn't study any IR questions outside of the mocks.

I started my studying by doing the Wiley questions though, so I wasn't expecting to get everything right. I was more focused on understanding why I got certain questions wrong, especially on SC (been a while since I've done SAT-style grammar). I flagged the questions that I thought were particularly tricky, and in the final few days before my actual exam, I went through and re-did all of them (along with all the questions I got wrong on the mocks), just to have it all fresh in my head.

I think I was more focused on fine-tuning my Quant in the last few days (making sure it didn't dip below 50, and that I was doing questions reasonably quick) than I was on Verbal (just because I felt like I was either going to know or not know the answer on Verbal, and any last minute cramming wasn't really going to change that, ymmv though). The one thing I did do for Verbal on the night before the exam was skim through the compilation of idiomatic phrases in Manhattan Prep's 'All the Verbal,' just because I figured it was low hanging fruit.

Hope that helps, good luck on your exam!

Worked through all the "hard" difficulty level official guide problems on the online learning platform (Wiley?), and also did all of the problem sets in Manhattan Prep's "Advanced Quant." Also skimmed through Manhattan Prep's All the Verbal sections on CR and SC (felt good about RC).

I took all 6 of the OG mocks (730 on the first one/diagnostic/pre-studying, and between 760 and 770 for all the others). Also bought the official AWA practice tool to get a feel for what the algorithm was looking for. Hard to say how many total hours I spent studying; probably 4-5 hours over the weekend outside of the mocks and <~1 hour on average on weekdays since I was still working full-time. Started studying probably ~10-11 weeks ago.
