What does test anxiety really look like on the GMAT? For many test takers, it does not look like a panic attack. Instead, it shows up as brain fog, rereading, negative comparisons, mental noise....

Some context:
I've been getting a 740 in all my GMAT mocks. I've taken 4.
So during my actual test in the verbal section I got extremely anxious and stopped processing information in front of me and instead started panicking and guessing questions from the beginning. When CR questions came up my brain felt like it was on mute and I couldn't reason ANY of the answer choices.
From this I've understood I need to find a way to control my anxiety during the test and also need to do timed sections a LOT more so I don't freeze the next time.
But besides this anything that y'all may notice that I don't and think I need to improve on please let me know.
My next test will be my last attempt so I want to be prepared.
Any advice for quant will also be appreciated.

Hi MGM1996.
Other than your weakness in CR, which you addressed in your post, the only obvious things that jump out from your ESR are that you didn't get any Geometry questions correct and that you may have spent more time on Geometry questions than other types of quant questions. So, if you have time over the weeks before your next test and want to increase your quant score, working on Geometry may be a good move.
Regarding the shutdown that you experienced, one thing I've noticed is that, while reducing anxiety is certainly a good idea, it's also good to learn to handle anxiety if you experience it by taking a deep breath, reminding yourself that you do know how to answer the questions, and getting busy carefully answering questions. In other words, panicking and guessing on questions can make you even more anxious, whereas being clear in your mind that you can handle the test and seeking to clear your head by focusing on the question in front of you can cause the anxiety to go into the background and eventually subside.
You can see anxiety as a wave that you can ride out. It may feel intense for a moment, but if you focus on getting correct answers and don't feed the anxiety, then the wave will recede.
Also, yes, doing more timed practice will help, and you can also visualize yourself taking the actual GMAT under time pressure, feel the anxiety associated with that experience, and practice riding it out, doing a sort of exposure therapy.

Hi Marty,
Thankyou so much for the advice.
I will definitely work on Geometry as well as my anxiety.
And i will employ these techniques on my next mock.
I do have a few questions - In this ESR my SC is at 38 and RC at 40, does this mean my actual skills are also at this level or is it a possibility that because i tanked CR i never got tougher questions?
Secondly, to further improve my score in a short duration (2 weeks) should i focus on improving quant or verbal? Or both equally? Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you!
