I gave a GMAT prep test 2 a few days ago. I received 17 SC Questions , ONLY 11 CR questions and 13 RC questions. As per the other mocks I have given, the breakup of SC and CR questions is very Absurd and off the track. Is this pattern happens occasionally on the GMAT exam or in my preptest if it appeared , than what it might be indicating??
Also , i got 2 consecutive RCs ( tough ones, each with 3 questions) in the last 8 questions and therevy i suffered a huge jilt in my score. Please give your comments on this also. These patterns in the official mocks are perturbing me.

It's okay, just keep studying. I took Veritas gmat test recently, I had two RC passages consecutively. Not a big deal after a lot of practice.
When I took my first real gmat exam there was nothing abnormal, btw. And RC passages were easy, considering I am non-native.

Don't worry, Vinitkhicha1111, that actually sounds completely normal. You'll almost always see 4 RC passages on the actual GMAT, and they could appear pretty much anywhere on the verbal section. It's definitely irritating to get hit with a bunch of RC at the end of the test, so you might want to keep track of how many passages you've seen so that you aren't blindsided by a heavy dose of RC when you're not expecting it. The balance of SC and CR also sounds right -- there's usually more SC than CR, though it's possible that you'll see 12 or 13 CR questions instead of 11.
Keep in mind that mock GMAT exams from test-prep companies aren't always an accurate reflection of the real exam. The GMATPrep tests use an algorithm that is very similar to that of the actual test, so it's likely that your GMATPrep test was accurate, and some of the other practice GMATs you've taken could be a little bit off.
I hope this helps!
