I feel very disappointed
I have been prepping for months for DI

My actual gmat score in Feb for DI was 77 and still I am stuck at 77/78 in official mocks.

Meanwhile I have worked on official practice questions for DI and GMATClub tests (where I avg around 82, max 85 in DI sectional)

It’s not even that I don’t understand the concept it’s almost always that the question I get wrong has extremely challenging verbal components which makes it hard to understand what’s it’s asking.

Can anyone suggest how I can improve on this

For reference this was mock 3

In Mock 2 DI I scored 83
Which was unreal but then I also read official mock 2 is easier

No one can tell you that other than yourself.

You’re exhausting the official resources without being properly prepared. That’s the first mistake.

You need to be able to be in a good 80%+ accuracy on almost all difficulty levels to even try.

And a few chats back I had given specific tips on using only the official resources to prepare - LSAT too.

And don’t just solve questions, categorize them - are you right for the right reasons, are you right for the wrong reasons, are you recognizing patterns and are you not recognizing patterns. 2x2 matrix of this would be a proper way of making an error log.

Some chats ago I had said to only use the official material and how. GMATClub tests aren’t close to the official GMAT test (no offense- it’s still good enough for practice)

What do we solve for DI practice

LSAT question?

I thought those are good for verbal
