It really depends on the difficulty of the questions that you get wrong (if you get easier questions wrong, your score will be lower), but I would say, from my experience, about seven or fewer mistakes would get you a verbal score of 40+.

The test is adaptive, so even if you keep only 10 mistakes, you can score a V41 or a V33.

But to answer your question, when I got a V41 in my GMATprep, I had 9 mistakes out of 41.

When I got a V38, I had 11 mistakes.
