Yeah just take a few pratice tests from the practice books. Then I reccomend doing a Princeton Review or some other training program, though costly it'll get you results. Almost everyone's score goes up after taking those. Mine did too. And be sure to take the PSATs.

Hello:\n\nDURING THE TEST \nThere are also some things to keep in mind when you are TAKING the test. \n\nFirst, read the directions carefully!! Many points have been lost because students didn't follow the directions. \n\nRemember to preview the test to see how much time you need to allot for each section. If the test is all multiple choice questions, it is good to know that immediately. \n\nWork on the "easiest" parts first. If your strength is essay questions, answer those first to get the maximum points. Pace yourself to allow time for the more difficult parts. \n\nFind out if you are penalized for incorrect responses. (This is probably covered in the directions. If not, make educated guesses. If there is a penalty, avoid guessing. \n\nWhen answering essay questions, try to make an outline in the margin before you begin writing. Organization, clear thinking, and good writing is important, but so is neatness. Be sure to make your writing legible. \n\nSave time at the end of the exam to review your test and make sure you haven't left out any answers or parts of answers. This is difficult to do under the stress of exams, but it often keeps you from making needless errors. \nhttp://www.d.umn.edu/kmc/student/loon/acad/strat/test_take.html\n\nBefore the test.\nTest Preparation Tips\nPreparation for your first test should begin after the first day of class; this includes studying, completing homework assignments and reviewing study materials on a regular basis. \nBudget your time, make sure you have sufficient time to study so that you are well prepared for the test. \n\nGo to review, pay attention to hints that the instructor may give about the test. Take careful notes and ask questions about items you may be confused about. \n\nAsk the instructor to specify the areas that will be emphasized on the test. \n\nMake sure you go to the class right before the test; it's another prime time for the instructor to give out more hints or the format of the test. \n\nGo over any material from practice tests, HW's, sample problems, review material, the textbook, class notes... \n\nEat before a test, having food in your stomach will give you energy and help you focus, but avoid heavy foods which can make you groggy. \n\nDon't try to pull an all nighter, get at least 3 hours of sleep before the test. \n\nPut the main ideas/information/formulas onto a sheet that can be quickly reviewed many times, this makes it easier to retain the key concepts that will be on the test. \n\nTry to show up at least 5 minutes before the test will start. \n\nSet your alarm and have a backup alarm set as well. \n\nGo to the bathroom before walking into the exam room, you don't want to waste anytime worrying about your bodily needs during the test. \nhttp://www.testtakingtips.com/test/genpre.htm\n\nDuring the test.\nTest Taking Tips\nBring at least two pens/pencils with good erasers, calculator with enough batteries and any other resources that your instructor allows you to. \nBring a watch to the test with you so that you can better pace yourself. \n\nKeep a positive attitude throughout the whole test and try to stay relaxed, if you start to feel nervous take a few deep breaths to relax. \n\nKeep your eyes on your own paper, you don't want to appear to be cheating and cause unnecessary trouble for yourself. \n\nWhen you first receive your test, do a quick survey of the entire test so that you know how to efficiently budget your time. \n\nDo the easiest problems first; don't stay on a problem that you are stuck on especially when time is a factor. \n\nDo the problems that have the greatest point values first. \n\nDon't rush but pace yourself, read the entire question and look for keywords. \n\nAsk the instructor for clarification if you don't understand what they are asking for on the test. \n\nWrite legibly, if the grader can't read what you wrote they'll most likely mark it wrong. \n\nAlways read the whole q

OK - you got a number of options and I'm studying for it as well so this is what I'm doing. \n\nI bought my Kaplan book, if you haven't - that's your first step right there. GMAT is a test that is TIMED and each question is worth a DIFFERENT amount - unlike the SAT/LSAT/GRE ... That said - the best way to study is to first practice taking a lot GMAT'S just like you did when you were studying for the SAT's. After you take the GMAT a lot of times, if you still don't have confidence - take a class. I suggest either Princeton Review or Test Masters. If you're on the east coast then Princeton Review or Kaplan. \n\nPractice the GMAT. The math isn't hard and the verbal is like SAT reading. Not too hard if you read a lot.

A good score on GMAT is the score that will get the admission into the desired university. For example,\nIf someone has 650 on GMAT (one can say it is a good score)  but it is less kiley to get into one of the top 5 business schools in US so then it is not good enogh for those schools.\n\nMedian GMAT score based on recent ~600K GMAT takers is 529.

GMAT is not the only consideration. Your extra curricular activities, experience and potential can weight even more.\n\nA 500 is considered 'good enough' in most places.

Don't get nervous!  Just focus and take deep breaths.  Try to visualize your notes or the material that you studied.  Also, don't get hung up on one question and waste the whole time.  If you aren't sure of a question, put a little dot next to it and go back.  In fact, as soon as you get the exam you should go through and answer all the questions that you are absolutely certain of.  Then go back and tackle the harder ones.  You should also eat a good breakfast or lunch so that your brain can focus on the exam material instead of on how hungry you are (but don't eat or drink too much right before for abvious reasons!).  Hope this helps you!

With a reasonable amout of time and effort put into studying for the GMAT you should be able to score 100-200 points more in the test than you would have if you had taken the test without preparation.\n\nAn extra 200 or even 100 points on your GMAT score is likely to make a great deal of difference in how the business schools you want to apply to view your application.

Kaplan's math questions are more difficult than the real test.\n\nIf you are interested in practice questions then ETS's GMAT Review (11th Edition) is the best book available. All the questions in it have been used in real GMAT tests and so they are definitely like the real thing. You should be able to get hold of it from Amazon, MBA.com or your local bookshop.\n\nIf you are interested in tutorials and tips then check out PrepForTests online GMAT quantitative tutorials http://www.prepfortests.com/gmat/tutorials/quantitative

As an MBA, I would recommend that you first take some english classes.  You need to improve your english language skills first and foremost.  Don't bother studying for the GMAT yet -- it won't do you a lot of good.
