Its one of the days when I don't feel like studying and I don't have a genuine reason. My best hours are morning or late at night. Since I cannot take GMAT at night I've got to prepare myself for morning. Working early effects my studies even if I get off work early and today was one of those days.
So my progress in last few days. I started with a MGMAT test on Sunday morning and then there were a zillion interruptions due to which I lost time on math section. I cut the test in between. Later I felt I should not have exit it and should have completed the verbal anyway. The problem was that I did want to take a test, which led me to take a GMAT prep test. Now the next problem I had was that I was already exhausted after awa and quant of MGMAT.
I skipped awa in gmatprep and did the quant n verbal. Score - 690 49Q 34V which is quite good for me. I could not recognize many repeat questions but the quant seemed easier than the one on mgmat tests. Even with a good progress from 600 and 640, my quant still has not touched the 50 mark which I'm aiming for. In fact I'm not considering this as a real 690, but may be a 650 ish score.
Yesterday was my SC focus day, did about 50 questions in OG. I'm getting about 60% correct, the incorrect ones usually occur when I'm tired or bored. Yes, I do get bored of verbal! Steps to take for verbal specially SC prep -
- find idioms and get familiar with them
- justify answer choices both eliminated and selected
- Read the options and may be spend extra 30 secs when I'm bored and cant focus
- Take 30 secs - 1 min break when bored while taking test. This will eat up time but will help focus
Today is gone but I have a free weekend coming up
