Hi , All
I just took Gmat a few days back and got meager 600 ( Q45, V28). I was expecting something like 700 , given my practice CAT scores( all under timed condition)

What I am surprised about is verbal score, Not even in one practice test I got below 32. I have been preparing for over 6 months for Gmat.
On the test day I was little nervous, and under tremendous pressure to do well.I think I was doing well in verbal till question 15-16 then suddenly one long passage came up that threw me out of sync with test and then I was never able to catch up , I think i guessed atleast 6-7 questions. Same thing happened in quant as well.
I plan to take Gmat in 2-3 months time and aim to get atleast 720.
Is it possible? I have gone through following books/resources till now
MGMAT SC book
OG 12 and 13
OG verbal and quant Supplement
Kaplan 800gmat club forums--some
my
error log/notes
Pl advice whether I should Buy different set of books or Join some course.
I am somehow getting the feeling that practice tests score mean nothing
