I don't understand my scores

Question

I don't really know what to do. I don't understand my Gmat focus scores. 715 three days ago, 655 today. I had a first official take of 645 (10th November). I wanted to retake in the next days, but I am lost, I feel I would like to wait more, but at the same time I don't know what to do to improve.
Here is the history of my scores... I am starting to think I am just lucky when I am good in quant.

Might want to take the Official Mock scores that were retakes with a grain of salt. You performed well on Verbal during your actual GMAT. Focusing on Quant and DI may be helpful. Probably good to include some Verbal prep so it doesn't get rusty.

Hi g_giaimo02,

Can you provide some more information on exactly what you have been doing to study as well as for how long you have been studying?

Hi g_giaimo02,

Given that you already have a very good score (645), you can choose to take the exam again soon, take it later, or perhaps not take it again. If you think you need to work on your quant, maybe do that and then take the test?

I have been study since September, about 20 hours per week. I didn't know anything about the test so at first I familiarised myself with the type of questions and bought the gmat focus official guide. I went through the 1000 questions from the online question bank, I did the mock as you can see on the drive, but I didn't buy any preparation course, I didn't have much money and preferred to keep the option of retaking the test. 
I didn't have any issues with VR, I always got a decent score in DI as well, although in DI I sometimes struggled to understand some questions in MSR. That's why I've been studying almost exclusively for the QR since 10 November, mainly through gmatclub questions and discussions.

I know 645 (89th) is a decent score, but I am worried about the low percentile in quant and a I don't know if it would be enough for Msc Finance Bocconi.

When you retake or reset mocks, it can lead to varied scores because of the repetition or variation of questions you encounter. This can make it a bit tricky to gauge your true performance level accurately.

Given your situation, I'd suggest looking at the last mock score you got before resetting any tests. This score likely gives the most accurate picture of where you stand right now. Also, if you feel confident in your preparation and you're consistently doing well, it might be a good time to go ahead and take the actual exam
