Does it mean that I can't analyze my actual performance on real GMAT and find out what happened on GMAT day?

That is correct. On the real test, you only get your final score, no # right/wrong, no ability to review problems.

Thanks mohater. I'm planning to focus more on gmat fiction books and less on verbal books for a month. After that, I'll slowly start balancing between reading more books and practicing CR/SC/RC sections. Should I read fiction books as the way recommended for RC passages i.e. active reading?

Reading helps both with active reading as well as with proper grammar.

For active reading, it's better to focus on publications such as newspapers, publications (newsweek, time, the economist, etc.).

Don't give up on the verbal books. The verbal books are to help you get aquinted with the needed content and strategies to do well. The GMAT Fiction thread is for improving overall language comprehension, grammar and speed.
