I have just scored a 4 out of 10 on a Reading Comprehension test. I feel really demotivated and I feel like maybe I do not have the aptitude to give GMAT. I started out with my preparation in January and even with 3.5 months of practice and preparation, I have not been able to improve on my verbal score at all. I did analyze the mistakes that I made in this test; there were three passages out of which I partially understood 2 of the passages and was confused with the content of one passage. Out of the questions of the 2 passages which I partially understood, I made a few mistakes; the third passage accounted for all 3 wrong answers! Although I had got a big picture idea of the passage but still wasn’t able to answer even 1 question correctly.
Please guide me through my preparation. Thanks for the help.

Don't get demotivate even if you can not score in real GMAT. You can bounce back from any fall back as many people did while their journey to target score and desired B-school. Understand and identify kind of skills required to answer correctly especially in RC section, then work to improve. Improving RC may take bit long time if the person isn't an avid and involved reader. So, keep on trying with the hope.
