Hi,

Finally I have decided to write a post on my score. I am running late by around 18-20 days as I thought of my score to be just okay. But after talking to a lot of fellow students and people, I found that it was not so okay .

So here is my story:

I started my preparations by giving the diagnostic test provided with OG12. It was seriously disgusting to see myself standing at average level even in mathematics. I knew that Mathematics will be a cakewalk after practising for a day or two. So I decided to devote most of my time to Verbal. 75% of my time spent on verbal was spent on SC and I believe I did right in doing so.

Material Referred:

1. OG12
2. OG11
3. Kaplan Advanced
4. Princeton Review
5. Verbal Review 2nd Edition
6. Manhattan GMAT tests
7. 800 Score Tests

My scores on various mock tests:

Princeton Review:
1. 610 2. 620 3. 680 4. 610 5. 640

Kaplan:
1. 680 2. 690 3. 710

800Score:

1. 710 2. 720 3. 750 4. 740 5. 780

Manhattan GMAT:
