Could someone share some strategies on how to build confidence in maths. I will be writing my test in 2 weeks time, and although I have read all concepts and practised PS & DS from both GMATclub and OGs my scores are not improving at all and I have started to lose confidence.

You may be in better shape rescheduling your exam for a few months out. There is not going to be a whole lot you can do to budge your quant in 2 weeks time. Can you provide a bit more information? Do you use an error log. Do you redo old problems that you missed previously? If you miss a problem more than once, are you missing problems that for the same mistakes?

It's good that you've recognized confidence as an issue affecting your Quant performance. You're most likely right about that. People who are confident in their ability to improve their math performance are more likely to improve, while people who write themselves off as "bad at math" are less likely to improve.

That said, I'd like more detail about how you've been studying. Have you worked through the Foundations of GMAT Math book? Are you doing sets of practice problems using a timer? Are you reviewing old problems you've already done? What does your analysis of your practice tests say - are there specific areas in Quant you're especially weak at?
What are you scoring in Quant and verbal ? And for how long have you been preparing?
