Please HELP!!!..620 in GMAT.. 700+ in all mock tests

Question

Hi experts...
Please suggest me what should I do. I gave my GMAT exam today and scored only 620(v27Q48)..?.. 
My mock test scores were as follows: 
Veritas prep 730
Kaplan 710
Experts global 700,720,740,730
Gmatprep mocks 710,730
I took my last gmat prep yesterday and scored a 730.
I have done all I could.. now I am really confused about what to do. 
I was pretty sure of scoring above 710. Should I schedule another exam in 15 days?? 
Please suggest the path forward..

Hi,
I understand that it is very disappointing, but you should keep your spirits up and try to analyze what exactly went wrong.
look into the factors that could have probably affected you performance in the actual test. Summarize it and work on it.

If you ask me, I would advice you against taking the test in 16 days.
Since you are already in pressure you may go wrong again. Take some time off, calm your nerves and then hit back after 40-45 days when you feel confident enough.
It will give you sufficient time to revise everything once again and work on your strategy.

All the best.

Hi Valt,

Please do not be disheartened. I understand how upsetting this can be. However, You should first order your ESR to see what exactly went wrong in your attempt especially in the Verbal section. If you feel that the performance was bad because of test anxiety, then you may benefit from giving one more attempt early on to see if you can improve your score as your mocks do indicate that you were definitely at a 680-720 level. However, If you found the questions particularly hard, then you may want to refresh your concepts and practice more in those areas before you give your GMAT.

Hope this helps. All the best!

Before I suggest anything, I would really like to know what is thereason behind the score drop.
Did you repeat any of the test you wrote?
Did the test center condition not live up to your expectation?

Valt · Answer

Nah.. I didn't repeat any of my tests .. all were fresh.. also test center was fine. The only issue was I reached there an hour before and they started after the scheduled time..during that hour an half my anxiety grew even more looking at the people who were giving the test .. but I started my paper with confidence( I guess) .. in all my mock tests my scores were above V35..
