Hi All,
I have been preparing for GMAT for close to 2 months now. I started with Manhattan mock exams and below are my scores -
Date Exam Quant Verbal IR Total
22/5/2016 Manhattan #2 44(Q) 33(V) N/A(IR) 640
5/6/2016 Manhattan #3 46(Q) 34(V) 3.1(IR) 660
30/6/2016 GMAT Prep #1 50(Q) 38(V) 8(IR) 720
9/7/2016 Manhattan #4 45(Q) 36(V) 4.57(IR)670
17/7/2016 Manhattan #5 44(Q) 35(V) 3.73(IR)650
These scores include one mock from Official GMAT prep (the only one where I managed to cross 700) and does not contain the one free mock from Manhattan as I appeared for that close to a year ago.
I wanted to know how accurate Manhattan mock exams are, as I really felt that both Quant and Verbal were more difficult in Manhattan compared to the GMAT mock. In almost all the Manhattan mocks, I was running out of time in the Quant section (with 3-4 questions left towards the end and no time left). For the official GMAT mock, I was able to finish both Quant and Verbal in time.
The last two mock results have really thrown me off-track and made me reschedule to 18/08 instead of 30/07. Can anyone help with interpreting these scores? And know if the Manhattan mocks are in general difficult than the original GMAT?
Thanks a ton!

Hello everyone, I have couple of questions.
1. Does joining an NGO makes you stand out or is a necessity to make it through ISB ?
2.I along with a group of 20 colleagues work towards the betterment of society or do social service in some way or the other. It is kind of an NGO work but is not well recognized, nor will I get any certification for the same. Can I make use of this in my application, even without having any certificate ? (Though I can request one my senior manager/director to draft a mail so that I can take a print of this email in order to justify this work)
It would be really helpful of you. Thanks in advance !
