Hi VIGupta,
Managing GMAT anxiety, especially during a stretch of uncertain questions in the Data Insights section, requires a steady mindset, intentional pacing, and clear self-talk.
It's important to remind yourself that feeling pressure during a tough sequence is completely normal and not a sign that you're performing poorly. Focus on one question at a time rather than worrying about your overall performance.
If a question feels overwhelming, pause briefly, take a few deep breaths, and refocus your attention. Approach each problem as a fresh challenge and don't dwell on past questions.
Create a mental reset after each question so you're not carrying stress into the next one. Building this habit during practice tests can make it easier to stay calm and in control on test day.

1) Do breathing exercises (Yoga) 
2) Care less for the score
just focus on your question on screen... don't think too far.. don't think of difficulty level... just the question on screen
Anxiety will disappear.
Trust me, point 2 is a winner...
