I took my first GMAT exam today (Monday). Was very disappointed, got a 545 (Q79, V79, DI78). I have done 3 official mocks before (M2-535, M1-595 (Q80, V81, DI77), M3-655 (Q87, V82, DI78).
Last week, work for def hectic and I was exhausted during my study time. The weekend my mood wasn't the best, but I forced myself to do some of the questions from the OG and GC. I was hitting the questions fairly well. I was confident I'd get 645-675 range.
On the day of the exam- I woke up ill, and my anxiety just shot up from there. Reached the test centre on time, but I was extremely uncomfortable throughout my exam. Started panicking about the time, didnt read the questions properly. I knew I was performly badly the entire time- added to my anxiety, but I just didnt know how to help myself.
I'm retaking the exam in 16 days- shoud I change from test centre to online? Is this just a bad experience or am I completely doomed? I'm just so disappointed in myself and just need some advice on what to do. Did I not take enough mocks? I've been studying diligently for a little over 2 months.
Or should I apply in R2? I’m worried about this option as I’m in Indian (over represented).

Sounds like things leading up to and the day of this test were a bit off for a few reasons. Perhaps take a few days to think over it/see how you feel before deciding whether to take your next attempt online or in-person. On your next attempt, in case you feel it takes you a bit of time to warm up, consider doing a few questions beforehand (i.e. not letting the first questions you see on exam day be those of the actual test). For motivation, reading a few success story posts in this subforum may help a bit. There may also be a few quick tips people have shared you find helpful as well. All the best.

I recommend you not hasting into the decision to retake. Take a break, analyze, strategize and then proceed.
