I have given a mock with 620 score, quant score - 39 and DS accuracy of 46%.
But I think I will have to cover more questions like you suggested.

Section 2 of my book (available for free at the website in my signature) is devoted entirely to DS strategies and ways of thinking, including insights that I gained over a decade of teaching the GMAT full-time. I hope you find it helpful!
