HELP GMAT FE 495-515 to target 605

Hi everyone, I’ve been studying for the GMAT since April 2025. I followed the Target Test Prep course, which has been very helpful for me because I basically had to rebuild my foundations from zero. So far, I’ve completed about 70% of the course.

Unfortunately, my mock scores have been 405, 455, 495, 515, and then 495 again. I also took the GMAT Focus Edition once and scored 495 (Q73, V77, DI74).

During the last week, I focused mainly on Reading Comprehension, which has been my weakest area, along with topics like percentages/interest problems, remainders, exponents, MSR, and TPA.

What can I do to reach 585-605? Right now I feel very frustrated and hopeless. I need to improve my score as quickly as possible to meet an application deadline.

In my mocks, my section scores are usually around:

  • Quant: 73–80
  • Verbal: 77–79
  • DI: 70–74

Should I try GRE? Any advice would be really appreciated.
