I took the Online GMAT (Enhanced/Examity) today. I don't know what to do as I am still in shock.
I've been studying for months on and off. Gone through
Manhattan prep, completed
TTP with high accuracies, took all 6
OG mocks, and scored between 710-750 with Q 48-50. I've practically done all the
OG problems from GMAT Club timed and reviewed those I didn't get right.
Anyway, I was at least expecting a Q45+ today.
But today, while, taking the exam I was interrupted by my proctor, who asked me to show him the front and the back of my monitor with a mirror, which I didn't have handy on my desk. So, I went on to look for one and showed him the four corners of my monitor by having a mirror in the front and another one in the back, while making sure that the webcam was able to capture it properly. I asked my proctor to pause the timer or at least to give me back that time. He didn't say anything about it. The whole mirror checking thing took 5 to 6min and the timer kept on running this whole time. I have no issues with checking for cheaters, but this was supposed to be done during the room scan and not mid-exam.
After this, I started guessing heavily on the quant to make up for the time lost (for the first half of quant). I knew immediately that I was getting screwed when I didn't see any difficult problems by question 20. This experience ruined my verbal performance too as I kept thinking about the incident in the back of my mind.
I ended up with Q41 (unofficial), which is the lowest quant score I've ever made.
I've reached out to Examity. They said that they are investigating.
Do you guys have any suggestions as to what else I should do?
