On your marks...

The third GMAT Prep got me back to 640. This was a great relief, especially after the debacle a couple of weeks back. I was scared the score would fall further, but to my relief, I could see another 640 with Q39 and V39. That was my level before I really got wayward, but now I can't afford losing focus or even being complacent. The plan is to take more exams in coming weeks and make sure that I get to my targeted score. What I need to do now is to revisit the basics. Will start revision from tomorrow itself.

On the whole, the takeaways were as follows:
1. Time management: I need to be better prepared with the Quant section as my time management cost me a couple of questions. This should not be the case in future exams.
2. Improvement in Verbal: Verbal jumped up 2 points, although some questions repeated. I am happy that I kept up the good work of getting all RC correct, and improved Verbal score. The ideal will be V44 or 46, and for that I really need to take efforts.
3. Quant weakness: I was able to see a couple of Quant questions on coordinate geometry and probability, though didn't get any question on combinatorics. I think I started well, but then let go of the edge. Will work on improving Quant over the next 30 days.

So that is all for now. I just know that I have to put in lots of efforts to get 700 or 720 even. Will work towards 750, and try to get it though!

37 days to go...
