▲ 3 r/GMAT

Hi everyone!

I started preparing for GMAT in Jan'24. I took coaching also during initial journey of my prep. Below is my scores for all three attempts.

1st attempt 535 (Q84, V68, DI77)

2nd attempt 575 (Q83, V74, DI79)

3rd attempt 615 (Q84, V80, DI77)

I'm exhausted already with my prep but couldn't get decent score. I wasn't expecting doing this bad in my third attempt in DI section. However, I felt that DI section contained so much text this time from earlier attempts. My section order is always same Quant, verbal and then DI with break after Verbal. Now I'm not sure how should I improve my score. I am done with GMAT club mocks, Expert Global mocks also. I scored at least 615 to 705 in mocks. I thought I was doing right to let's book the exam and disappointed after today's third attempt.

I have no idea what next step should I take. Should I proceed for retake again. This exam is already so costly and I am still not over with the thought that I couldn't get my desired score yet. I have good educational background but not able to crack this exam.

Please guide me what should I do for improving my score from 615 to 715+ score. Or should I stop preparing further and with 615 score should I apply any good universities for MBA?
