Hi,
I have my GMAT on November 11th and I have taken two official practice tests so far. In my latest, I got a total 740 (Q50V40). I'm analyzing my Quant score and I basically got 10 questions wrong.
3 mistakes in the second quarter, 3 in the third quarter, and 4 in the final quarter. But I still got 50. I'm not convinced with my performance and I feel like the practice tests' scoring is too lenient—the real GMAT won't be as forgiving. Am I right in thinking that? I don't want to overestimate myself and my prep for the actual exam. Any insights would be appreciated!

Hi Rhaenyra,
First of all congratulations for your marriage to Daemon. It really does cement your succession to the throne once Viserys dies.
Coming to your question, getting a Q50 with 10 questions wrong is truly odd but at the same plausible. Plausible because you might have got only the hard ones incorrect and the software judged your ability to be at Q50.
As for leniency, in my opinion, official mocks are not much different from the actual exam. Offical mocks seem easy as their questions are replicated and re-produced in different forms by various prep companies (looking at you expert's global), so those questions may look familiar to you during the official mock. Besides that, there's no other platform that comes close to the actual exam as do official mocks.

Might be worth searching for more similar queries on gmatclub and looking through the Share GMAT Experience sub forum:

740 (Q50V40)
Consider working on your solving approach for Verbal. May help boost your score a bit. Had a 6-hour student who retook a V41 to a V45 in about 10 days. Perhaps work with a study buddy with strong Verbal skills.
