Hi everyone!
It's been quite some time since I started preparing for the GMAT, and this community has been incredibly helpful over the past 3–4 months in helping me build a solid foundation in several key concepts. Today, I’m seeking guidance on how to move forward, as I scored a 585 on yesterday’s GMAT exam.
This was the lowest score I’ve received compared to all my mock tests. I was consistently scoring 625 in official mocks, and in my last three mocks, I scored 645 (Practice Mock 6), 665 (Retake of Practice Mock 1), and 685 (Retake of Official Mock 2 and I remembered one answer) just a week before the exam.
The official score report is yet to arrive, but in retrospect, I found the Quant section on the actual GMAT to be more difficult than in the mocks. I'm targeting ISB Round 1 and am considering retaking the exam in three weeks, so I would really appreciate any expert suggestions or advice from those who’ve been on a similar path.
PS: Target GMAT Score : 655-665. Also, would need advice on how can I improve on data sufficiency part as DI was pretty bad. I often struggled with hard DS questions in mocks and practice as well.
Thanks!

Consider sharing your score report when it becomes available. People may provide a few specific suggestions based on it. For Data Sufficiency, a quick tip would be to the use ADBCE method if you feel your approach requires a little more structure. In case you've done all the DI questions from the Official-Guide 2025-2026, the DI Review 2025-2026 guide could be helpful to check out.
