Hello all!
After ~3 months of studying, I just took my first GMAT attempt and scored a 595 (67th percentile). My first mock was a 535 with Quant in the 12th percentile, so moving up to the 50–60% range already feels like good progress. That said, I’m aiming for a 655–675, so I still have work to do!
I’ve generally been strong in Verbal and DI (consistently around the 85-95th percentile on mocks), but on test day my DI dropped to the 62nd percentile — probably just an off day. Interestingly, I only missed 4 Quant questions (Q1, Q3, Q8, and Q15) yet still landed in Q79, which makes me think I was served an easier section. Beyond the first few questions, I answered most correctly and even finished with plenty of time left.
Looking ahead, I plan to retake in early November and want to sharpen my Quant. I’ve already completed TTP and have been trying the Streaks Method (15 easy, 15 medium, 10 hard), but I keep plateauing in the 605–655 range on GMAT Club.
Does anyone have suggestions for breaking through this range — whether strategies, specific tutors, or resources (I’ve heard mentions of Ian Stewart’s books)?
Thanks in advance!

Try introspecting about what have you felt while marking the answer choice. Was there even slight doubt to mark them? And you still haven't bookmarked so that you recheck again if you got time later.
Also check if you have done mistake on reading question stem where it says x belongs to real number but you only checked answers for integers
Check if you had any conceptual gap or not(I think this will be rare if you are missing only 4 questions) but still there may be some topics which you might have not practiced upto that level of concepts.
This activity should give you enough clarity
