This seems quite unusual. As someone already mentioned, the discrepancy may be due to taking different CAT sources (GMATPrep and Kaplan, for example). And, of course, you took an unhealthy amount of time off.

Also, have you reviewed the test and found out why you missed so many questions?

The best way to address this issue is first to realize that there is indeed a problem. And you have done that. Next is to review your mistakes on the test to determine what exactly happened. And it's crucial to return to the basics: re-read your math guides and reinforce the concepts with high-quality questions.

Hi guys - thanks for that. I think I will take bmillan01's approach and go through the practice exams again, doing 'focused sessions' on the topics for the questions I got wrong as well as some high-quality practice questions, as mentioned -thanks
