GMAT Inequalities is a high-frequency topic in GMAT Quant, but many students struggle because the concepts behave differently from standard algebra. Understanding the right rules, patterns, and edge cases can significantly improve both speed and accuracy.- May 06

Hello everybody,
Gave GMAT the second time today and I am terribly disappointed with the result. Scored just 660(q49,v30). The first time, I had scored 610. I had a genuine reason for doing so miserably the first time. I was very unwell at the time of the test. But today's 'performance' is an absolute shocker because I averaged around 740 in the mocks that I took. Had scored 760 less than a week ago (GMATprep). So, I really don't know how I managed to score just 660. All the mocks that I had taken were as close to the exam conditions as possible. I have given the CAT exam, an MBA entrance in India,and scored 99 percentile in the verbal section.
Can any of you please try to shed light on this? Where am I going wrong? Have any you faced such a situation before?

I have noticed a lot of students who report a similar situation.
I'd be curious why this happens......I guess is because all practice questions you take, mock CAT and so on and so forth there is a loto of difference between that and real questions on real exame.
I wait a response from a person with more experience than me, better a GMAT instructor if possible
I understand your point

I can understand what you must be going through as i too went though a similar situation. 620-shocked-but-not-defeated-135978.html
It's the verbal that has pulled down our score. I felt a major shift in SC during the actual and found it to be more focused towards style and usage.
