I have no idea why things happen the way they happen!
I gave my Gmat today and got Q 48, V 27.
In Gmat prep,I have got 680(49,34) and 700(49,35)
In Manhattan Tests,I have got quant in range of 44-46 and Verbal 34,35,31,27 (in that order ! )
After giving two Gmat prep tests,I was confident of scoring 35 in Verbal.But on the test day,when I saw 27..I was thinking if my preparation of 4 months even mattered a bit.What if I had given GMAT without preparation as I was already scoring 34-35.
I think I lost concentration in Verbal and just kept on marking the answers.I feel like I was giving it unconsciously!!(I am a non-native speaker)
Can anyone suggest what should I do now...in the end of my prepration,I was getting very good in SC's and fairly Ok in CR.My problem area were DS and RC(though in both Gmat prep tests,I got all RC right..that made me complacent ,I guess
)
I am stating my story so as to let non-native speakers know that reversal happens!!Scoring 34-35 in Gmat prep doesn't guarantee 35 in actual GMAT .Though I don't know 'How' and 'Why'!!
If any suggestions...most welcome.

Read this article and see if it helps. It might have been a bad day at office... your quant scores were consistent. Good luck for your next attempt!
