Hi,
I am a Chinese girl, i have taken 4times GMAT in the past 6 months, scored 680-540-530-660, my prob is i had never finished Verbal questions, always left 3-5 questions, and my Verbal scores were around 20-30

I need 2mins on each SC question, 3 mins-CR, 7-8mins-RC, am i too slow?

I have studied OG and PREP and reviewed all explanations, related posted on this forum, however i still didn't do well. Please give me some suggestions what i need to do next

And i only have 5h on workday and 10h on weekend to study, i am planing to retake next month, do you think i have enough time to prepare and reach 700?

Thank you so much!

You certainly have a shot because you have almost reached 700 twice now. I'm guessing that the large variability in score is likely due to significant timing problems.

A few things:
- EVERYbody struggles with timing
- EVERYbody has to guess on some questions
- EVERYbody gets stuff wrong

If you try to get everything right, you will run out of time and your score will drop.

You need to average about 1m15s on SC, about 2m on CR, about 2 to 3 min on the RC read-through, and about 1 to 1m45s on RC questions.

Because you have been so close a couple of times, I'm going to tell you first to focus primarily on this timing issue. First, log into your student center, go to Resources and Downloads, and click on the link for The GMAT Uncovered Guide. Read the Scoring section.

Then read the below article and start doing what it says:

If you would like, you can also use the below article to analyze your most recent MGMAT CAT and then post your analysis here (NOT just the raw data - your actual analysis):

We'll help you figure out what to do from there!
