I started preparing for the GMAT in last week of Dec'13. I had my GMAT today and scored a meagre 520. Q40 and V21!
IR 6. I was ok with the quant score(it was as per my expected range) but the verbal was a huge disappointment. I totally got bogged down with the timing in the verbal section when I started the verbal section and had to rush through many questions.
I used all the official material for study - GMAT prep, GMAT prep question bank, OG 13, MGMAT tests, powersons CR bible for CR etc
I also scored a consistent 680 on GMAT Prep cat1 and cat 2. scored a 690 on MGMAT. All this was taken around 4-5 days before the GMAT exam.
I was anyways never keen to break the 700 barrier; was happy with scoring between 650-680; but now a score of 520 has left me shattered.
Although I need to retake the exam, I feel very let down to begin the prep again.
Previously, in 2009 I had taken the GRE exam and had a score of 1300 in it. Also had taken the IELTS exam and had a score of 8.0. I trust that my English does not suck; having studied in English Medium through out and also being an Avid reader and a creative writer.
Anyone has any advise on how to get set on the path again? or will this score lead me anywhere? I am not looking to apply to any Ivy league business schools and was planning for an executive full time mba in India starting next year 2015.

Hi there,
You were scoring in the mid-600s during your sim tests so you should be able to do this during the real GMAT. What was the issue with the verbal section? Do you think that it was nerves? How is your timing strategy? Knowing exactly what your issue is will help you to customize an optimal study plan.

Elizabeth
