I took a practice test last Sunday and I got a 630 (42 Quant 57% /  34 Verbal 69%), which is a somewhat decent improvement after my streak of getting 580 in different CAT exams AND the official exam.

Kind of bummed because I wanted to get at least a 650 and then sign up to take the GMAT in two weeks from Saturday 4/13.  I simply ran out of time during both the Quant and Verbal sections.

I need to guage my internal 2 minute clock, because I spent 4 and 5 minutes on certain Quant questions!  That really killed my score, because I couldn't even answer the last question.  NO WHEN TO GUESS AND MOVE ON DAVID!!!!  

I realize that I need to study more around number properties, square roots, combinatorics, and so on.

On the flip side, I think the 34 on Verbal or 69% percentile was the best I've scored so far.  If I can maintain and improve on Verbal and raise my Quant score, I should really be able to get a 650 on the official exam.   

On Data Sufficiency, the graphs are drawn to scale.  Use the graph paper to estimate lengths.  I spent 4 minutes on a problem, because I just couldn't give up.   MOVE ON!!!


For any set of consecutive integers with an odd number of terms, the sum of the integers is always a multiple of the number of terms. For example, the sum of 1, 2, and 3 (three consecutives -- an odd number) is 6, which is a multiple of 3. For any set of consecutive integers with an even number of terms, the sum of the integers is never a multiple of the number of terms. For example, the sum of 1, 2, 3, and 4 (four consecutives -- an even number) is 10, which is not a multiple of 4.
