11 days until my GMAT exam

[AndreaN473]

Hello,

I am retaking the GMAT on 05/02/14, which is 11 days from today. I have been studying with the official GMAC as well as with the Manhattan CATs. My scores are as follows:
First Actual GMAT 490 Q35 V23
MGMAT CAT 1 580 Q42 V28
MGMAT CAT 2 560 Q36 V31

I have 4 MGMATs left and 2 GMAC (from the free GMAC software). I need to get a score in the high 500s or 600 if possible.
Should I take them all in the following 11 days?
What would be a good plan for the days I have left?
Thank you

No, do not take a bunch of tests. You don't actually get better by just taking a ton of tests.
(If you want to know why, read this: https://www.manhattangmat.com/blog/inde ... many-cats/

Your scoring range right now is in the high 500s, assuming that you took those tests under 100% official conditions (including essay and IR). Since that is your goal range, you want to use your remaining time to review and work on your game plan.

Here's how to build your game plan:

And here's how to review:

Because you're now about 8 days out, you'll have to adjust what the articles describe (because they assume 14 days). Don't just try to cram everything into 8 days - you'll burn yourself out. Focus on just the highest priority things: careless errors, topics or question types that are most likely to show up on the real test, etc.

Good luck - let us know how it goes!

Will do. Thank you for your recommendations Stacey!
