Something similar happened to me too, I will start talking about my GMAT journey so far. I had taken GMAT in 2019 with little Preparation. I scored a Q40 and a V28, with a final score of 600. I understood that I need to prepare well for the exam. I took a short break and started my preparation in august 2020. It took me almost 8 moths. I spent most of my time Learning Sentence correction, Critical reasoning and RC. Once I felt that I had a decent grip on these Verbal topics. I started my quant preparation. Eventually I was confident enough to give mocks. I purchased the mocks from
Expertsglobal. In the First 2 mocks I Got 710, In the third mock I got a 680 and in the remaining 3 mocks, I got, 700, 710 and 740 respectively. My quant score varied from Q43-Q49 V43 was on a very bad day. and Verbal Varied between V38-V43. I also Gave GMAT prep Mocks 1,2 and 3 I got a 710 in mock 1 and 2(these were repeat mocks as I had given them in 2019 and scored 630 and 640) and a 720 in mock 3. I was confident about my performance and I opted to give the online exam on May 11th.
The exam was weird. Quant was nothing like what I have seen in the mocks. It started out tough and I managed to complete it with 5 minutes in my hand. Verbal was a mixed bag, Sentence correction was extremely tough, CRs and RCs were alright.
But I ended with a 610 for my score. I got a Q36. Verbal was bit better, I got a V37, somewhat In line with what I usually get. I feel that I overlooked many traps that are laid out through the quant problem.
The worst part is that there is no option to get an Enhanced score report for the online exam.
I feel devastated and clueless. I feel extremely low because my quant performance. I am an Indian engineer who graduated in 2019.
I am thinking of switching to GRE preparation after one more shot at GMAT in 2 months
I would be grateful If someone can guide me out of this grave situation.
