    Hi.
    I have been practicing lately to improve my verbal score. I have been scoring consistently 29-32 in the GMATPrep and MGMAT practice tests. I noticed that for the GMATPrep I make mistakes around 14-16 and in MGMAT 18-21.

    Also, when I review, I realise I could have got atleast 4-5 of them right if I had more time to think on them. Any suggestions how to improve on this ?

    Since, I never got a 35 so far, I would like to ask candidates who have scored above 35 that on an average how many questions they answered incorrectly ? I would like to know how is it like getting a 35. Is it only a matter of getting a couple of more questions right when you are getting a 32 ?

    I know, that the score also depends on the level of difficulty of questions you answer and not only on the number of right answers, but still there would an average of how many questions should be right to get a 35 or above.

    Please reply me.

    This really depends on the difficulty level in the tests but usually on the GMATPrep if you get around 27-29 questions right ur verbal score would be in the mid-30's (34-36)
