GMAT Inequalities is a high-frequency topic in GMAT Quant, but many students struggle because the concepts behave differently from standard algebra. Understanding the right rules, patterns, and edge cases can significantly improve both speed and accuracy.- May 06

Gave my GMAT yesterday after 2 months of diligent prep and saw a score of 680 q50v32! I absolutely blew off my verbal 
I've been consistently scoring between 730-780 in the CATs and GMATPrep and the actual exam came as a huge shock to me. I am targeting the top 10 schools and I think this score is nowhere close to even indicate that I should apply. I will retake again and that means postponing my mba applications by another year That will make my work ex 5 years next year.
I have exhausted all MGMAT and GMATPrep and OG questions. I think I will need to study more and then retake, I'm planning in Feb again. Does one hamper his/her chances by a retake? Not that I have a choice anyway
I'm frantically looking what went wrong and yet I have no clue Does anyone have any recommendations to improve the verbal score? Any courses to suggest? Knewton? GMATPill?
Thanks vm

I found that the real GMAT test is a bit harder than the mock test (both Manhattan and Official). I think I scored around 740-760 on my mock tests but I scored only 710 in the real test.
I believe that you've already got all the knowledge for GMAT but you might need to find a proper test taking strategy. That's something that can really make a different. For me, I always skip 1 reading passage because I have problem in finishing the verbal section. Skipping 1 reading passage allows me more time to complete the whole section with more accuracy. You should try to find your own strategy

Hi Apinun, I agree. I found the real test to be much different and harder. I don't think it reflects OG whatsoever. Not sure if it's the recent trend or just my luck
Congrats on your score, btw!
