­Hi everybody, I recently took the GMAT and am devasted; I have no idea what came over me, and I performed horrendously. I scored a mere 555(Q75, V80, DI78). The first section I gave was quant, and I ran short on time, missed a question, and practically guessed in a few questions. That had a domino effect, which affected all the later sections as well. I scored 685-705 on my mocks before the exam.
My applications are approaching, and I must give them again as soon as the 16 days end. I cannot figure out what I need to work on right now. It is all so overwhelming and scary. Please suggest whatever you can.
­Hi Shailly1,

As has already been mentioned, you may have had a bad day. If the questions in your (official) practice tests were fresh, your scores should be reliable. Keep solving questions, take another practice test, and then take the test again.

All the best.
