I've taken the official mocks 1, 2, and 3 so far and got a pretty consistent Q49 on all three. My verbal score was V35 on the first one (screwed up the time on this and had to guess the last 6 questions), and V42 on the remaining ones. For some reason, I can't seem to move past the V42 mark, regardless of how hard I study.
The pattern of wrong answers is pretty consistent across the tests as well, usually with RC and CR Hard questions accounting for 90% of the errors. This is especially concerning because after getting the first V42, I spent the whole week drilling OG Hard CR and RC questions, only to end up with the same score as the week before. A big chunk of my errors is also due to really silly mistakes (misreading the question, misinterpreting the answer choices, etc. - I'd say usually 1 or 2 verbal mistakes in each mock were due to these silly errors).
Not sure what to do anymore - any advice would be really appreciated!
P.S. My exam is scheduled in three weeks!

Well... for once, it is pretty hard to get past V42, which is 96th percentile or around that... there is one video though in particular that touched on it. Perhaps it will be helpful?

As to the silly mistakes, you have to figure out a system to be able to get over them and not make them. Getting past 96th percentile sort of requires that kind of a discipline and anticipation of silly mistakes and counter-measures....

Working on fine tuning your way of tackling questions may be helpful. A recent student of mine got a V45, but the scoring becomes very steep at that level. Even the V48 I have came down from a V51 (3 points) due to a single question. See if you can perhaps work on some pattern recognition. All the best.
