Hi Experts, I am bit puzzled with my Preptest-4 verbal score.
My individual CR and RC percentiles are 83 and 93 respectively, but my overall verbal Raw score is mere 77, even less than the mean score. How is that possible?
Also, to maintain the accuracy in Verbal, i tend to be slow, smooth, but at the end of the test, i am forced to guess 3 questions randomly. How do i address this?
Please help me figure out! I think, if i address this, i can bring down my total wrongs in VA to 4-5.

Checking out some of the score report info others have shared could provide some insight. Here's someone who got a V82, for example, with a 58th and 88th percentile ranking on CR and RC respectively: https://gmatclub.com/forum/done-with-my ... 21275.html
How to score high on GMAT Verbal.
Quote:
If, for example, you find CR assumptions questions slippery, the negation technique may be useful to learn. Doing timed practice sets and seeing what others have done/used to improve and/or score well on Verbal could also be helpful. Perhaps include working with a study buddy. If you can find someone who is really strong on Verbal and needs help with areas of the GMAT you're strong on, that could be a good fit. There's a study buddy thread on gmatclub you could have a look at/sign up to.

Hi ashutosh_73,
I don't have an answer for you, but generally speaking, the individual percentiles aren't very accurate.
As for timing, you may want to set time targets for your verbal section. Also, if you're referring to "Slow is smooth, and smooth is fast" as used in military contexts, keep in mind that they're not actually slow.
As far as pace is concerned, I aim for fast, but not rushed.
