Sorry for the disappointing show on the GMAT. You have a huge gap in the mock scores and the actual one. This happens mainly for the following reasons:
1. You ha da bad day
2. You were not prepared with the test taking strategies.
In your case, it seems the case 2. As you said that you did not take CATs realistically, it would have had a big impact on the score.
GMAT is just like a marathon, where you need to train your body for the 4 hour ordeal.
I see that you have used books extensively yo study in this round. I would recommend you to opt for either an in-person course or an online course.
Enrolling for a course will make sure that you are thorough with the concepts and can clarify any doubts that you have either with the videos or with the tutor.
Most of the preparatory companies including ours offer a free trial along with a score improvement guarantee. You can use the trial period and see if the course suits your needs.
1. Did you solve all the
OG questions?
2. Did you solve the Verbal Review questions?
3. What material did you use for Quants?
