Hello

Welcome to the GMAT Sep wagon!
We can definitely do that. Do you have any e-material for Quant or even Verbal?

Best,
V

Sub: A series of brief interaction with Paresh via Private message. Putting it here as it may be of some help to fellow members.

Hello Paresh


The preparation is now in 3'rd gear and I've just completed with the syllabus Maths once and will be doing OG, Kaplan 800 and numerous DS question online because thats my weak area.

For Verbal, I've completed Manhattan SC and now doing SC part in OG 12, which will be followed by Kaplan 800.

I wish to complete the OG once in next 15 days.

Let me know your plan.

Best

PJ:
VM Nice to hear from you man.
I am focussing on LSAT RC's, SC's and CR's.
Taking full length tests on weekends. Scoring in 630 to 670 range.
OG I had completed, not feeling like going back to it again. Lets c.

Want to first clear the 700 mark for psychological. Thats the short term target.

VM
Hello

This sounds good. That means you have enough time to revise things. you are giving me jitters and I need to pull myself within next 2 weeks to reach where you are right now.

What's LSAT?

PJ:
Thanks
Vaibhav Quantity doesnt matter. Take your time always.
LSAT are tough ones. Got them somewhere from the net.
Are you taking any tests?
Give a test on a weekend and you will understand where you stand. Which helps you strategize a lot.

VM:
Hello Paresh

I think we should past our discussion on the thread started by me because it would other people too.

It'll be great if you can send me LSAT material though I'm doing OG right now.

I've not started taking test because I'm still revising the entire syllabus. I've planned to start it next month. I do believe that I know my weak areas as I gave test earlier. Thats nice. Good you know your weaknesses
Let me know you mail id. I will mail you LSAT's.

VM:
What should be my strategy for Quant prep as I"m really bad in it. I'll mail you soon.

PJ:
For Quant - OG is only of 60% difficulty I would say.
Dig in through Kaplan CD practice tests. Those are challenging ones.
Check some stuff online if possible.
The point is, one can reach a score of QA-45 easily.
But the fun starts solving questions to make it to QA-50.

cheers
PJ

Hi,

I will be giving my GMAT on 21 sep. Have completed og11, manhattan sc,cr,rc and maths. Currently doing 1000 sc and quant.

Can anyone throw some light on where I can give some tests in delhi? I gave the GMAT practice test and scored 680. Need to give some practice tests. Called up a couple of places like chopras (Rs.500/ test , 4 tests) and time (Rs.6950, 4 tests).

Also need help with SC. Accuracy only 70%.

Rgds,
Abhishek
