Day 17 to 19 - 8th to 10th July

I am blogging now in the middle of the day, as a break between my gmat preparation. I took the diaganostic test from OGR,11th edition and scored 40 out of 48 maths questions and 34 out of 52 verbal questions. The results reflected my performance as excellent in maths and average in verbal.

I took my first full lenght test today, online from pricenton review.com. My score is little above average, i.e. 550 out of 800. I hope my performances will definitely improve to 650 with practise on sample questions from different books and more full lenght tests. But the amount of hardwork i put in in the next 2 months will decide whether i can get more than 700.

Reviewing today's full lenght tests, I have to admit that i need to take more full lenght tests, inorder to get my concetration for a longtime that the test needs. Also i have to be more cautious while answering the initial questions. I realised that a slightest of error in the beginning will cost more. Though i got 32 questions correct in maths, i made 3 errors in the first 15 questions which resulted in a poor total score.

On verbal, i better make no comments as there were 4 incorrect answers among the first 10 questions. On the whole i could get only 22 questions correct on the verbal. Of the 19 incorrect answers, 17 were among the first 29 questions. I feel that due to the fear of running of time, I hurried in the initial questions.

Its very clear that I have to concentrate more on verbal compared to maths. I will start working on the sample questions from verbal section in the OGR,11th edition today. After completing these questions, I will take another full lenght test and review my performance.

Hope I will be back in this page after my next full lenght test with a better verbal score.
