Gave my GMAT for first time and got 650 (Q49V29). Looking for ESR Analysis. In my practice, SC was getting better but looks like that only drove my score down. Quant- I know I faltered a few questions, and could have got Q50 easily. So looking for Verbal Analysis.

Working on your time management may help your Verbal a bit. You first 3 quarter averages were close to 2 minutes but your 4th was 1:09, for example. For Sentence Correction (your weakest on this performance), memorizing commonly tested idioms and cutting out the fluff in answer choices to check whether the core of a sentence "works" could help a bit.

Hi riddleme.
You missed mostly Grammar questions in SC. So, your performance on this test indicates that you need to get better at identifying grammar issues, such as subject-verb agreement, sentence structure, and pronoun issues.
You also ran out of time in Verbal, and throughout the section, you were getting medium questions correct but not getting higher difficulty questions correct. So, you need to on your Verbal skills in general.
One key aspect of effective Verbal prep is to shoot for very high practice accuracy. The reason this approach works is that, in shooting for very high accuracy, you really get your skills dialed in and learn to consistently see what's going on in Verbal questions and get them correct. Meanwhile, the same skills that support accuracy support speed. So, by working on achieving high accuracy, you get faster as well.
Suggested accuracies:
E - close to 100%
M - 90%+
H - 70%+
To achieve high accuracy, practice untimed at first and, any time you miss a question, figure out why (knowledge gap, skills gap, execution issue) and address the issue.
