[quote=Anonymous]I had scores like this, but opposite (strong verbal). I was unable to raise my math because I studied on my own, ineffectively. In my late 20s, with my own money on the line for tuition, I was able to eliminate the math asymmetry on the GMAT through lots of focused practice on my weaknesses. I think the score may limit him at some schools. But there are definitely engineering-centric schools that won't care. If he is a current senior, and a retake is in the future, get a live tutor to professionally analyze his pattern of mistakes and make sure he's mastered all the hacks. If he has a year, and he's flexible, I'd buy him a subscription to the New Yorker magazine and ask him to read each issue. The writing is complex and college level but the article topics are varied and shorter than books. [/quote]
