Hi everyone, I gave my 1st attempt 4 days back and scored 595 (Q80, V82, DI76). After giving almost 5-6 months to the prep I'm feeling devastated and have no idea how to proceed towards improving. My goal is 685+
My mock scores are 615, 605, 625, 635, 655.
I was scoring 81-85 in Quant, 81-87 in Verbal and 76-82 in DI.
Main areas of concern in Quant are time management, careless errors, P+C+probability.
In DI, time management, MSR, graphs and careless errors in DS.
In verbal I'm unable to pinpoint where I'm going wrong. RC is better than CR for me.
On test day, test anxiety may have been an issue as I took the test the in the order of V-Q-break-DI. And first 3 ques in Verbal were incorrect for me. In Quant, first 10 ques were correct for me but then I took up a lot of time and got 4 ques wrong consecutively, due to which I lost a lot of time and had to guess on last 3 ques out of which 2 were incorrect again.
I want to give another attempt next month before R2. I need your help guys as to how to proceed forward.

For RC, becoming familiar with how inference questions work could be helpful. For CR, if assumption questions are slippery, the negation technique could be useful to learn as well. If you feel your fundamentals are solid, consider working on your solving approach. May help boost your score a bit.

Hi NilayMaheshwari,
595 is a good score, but given your practice test scores, you are most likely capable of getting a higher score. As far as the verbal section is concerned, you could consider using this CR course if you think you need to work on or prioritise CR.
All the best.
