I got a 640 in my last mock (V32 and Q45)
I gave another mock today and got a 650 (V38 and Q42)
I increased 6 points on verbal and went down 3 points on Quant. Thus went up 3 points overall, but still only went up 10 points on the overall score?
How does that work?

Hi bakshiaashna,
Go through the tables here. Each score has an associated percentile. For example, you went from V32 (66%) to V38(85%), but you also went from Q45 (54%) to Q42 (42%). Your total score, meanwhile, increased from 68% to 73%. For comparison, if you had gone from 630 to 640, the increase would have been "only" 2%, but your 640 to 650 is +5%, which happens to be the biggest "jump" on the current scale.
That said, try not to worry about the scoring. Focus on improving your scores, and prioritize the official practice tests.
