Hello,
In my first attempt, I had scored a mere 570 without any preparation. I later spent good 2-3 months to strengthen my core basics. I had subscribed to E- GMAT for verbal and Target Prep for Quant. In both of those forum my accuracy level was (a) >95% for low level questions (b) >85% for medium level questions and (c) > 70% for hard level questions. I would also like to mention that I haven’t touched OG.
Coming to test day experience:
Quant- I was doing pretty good in first twenty questions and it was then when I checked my clock. I barely had a min per question left. I rushed and guessed on quite a few questions. I had stopped thinking rationally.
Verbal- Typically I am way slow. But as seen in ESR, questions were of medium to low level thereby didnot consume alot of time in answering them.
I am surprised that even with a decent accuracy level, difficult questions were not thrown. This is in contrary to the level of questions I was getting in Quant section.
Please help me in:
1. Understanding what can I do differently to boost my score
2. Why wasn’t I offered hard level questions in Verbal section
3. Can last ten questions hurt my score this bad in Quant?
I have attached my ESR.
Regards,
Shouvik

Hello. You didn't state your score and there is no ESR attached. Providing more info about your mock test scores might also help.
Best wishes!

Hi, You did not provided either Score split nor ESR. If you provide ESR, the experts will give your strengths and area of improvements as well as detailed study plan.
