Hey Ayush,
Congratulations on 730.

Can you please tell what you did differently this time as compared to last time?
Currently, in a similar boat as you were.

Yeah a few things:
1. I focused on the quality of questions rather than the number.
2. The level of questions should not be only 700+. I solved questions from 550-750 levels, focusing especially on the mid level questions that i got wrong.
3. I had no official mocks left as I exhausted all of them earlier. I got the free mocks from a few prep providers and intelligently planned them to match the exam timing.
4. Last time I was a bit exhausted during the quants section in my real exam that brought my score low to Q45. This time I ensured that I don't go over-focused during my verbal and saved energy for my quants.

Thanks
Ayush
