In order to get a score of 670+, how many questions can I afford to make mistakes in quants and verbal individually?
Currently ranging around 10-12 wrong in quants and 12-14 in verbal

Hey buddy,

in general it is not about "how many" questions you answer incorrectly but rather which questions.

You may achieve a great score with 8-9 mistakes in each section on really hard questions, while the same number of mistakes could lead to a subpar score if the questions which you answer incorrectly are of the "easy" category.

Always keep in mind that the GMAT is a CAT.

Hope this helps.

Best regards & all the best for your prep,
Chris
