    I took the GMAT test last week and got a 560 (Q:47, V:21). The test turned out to be much more difficult than any of the practice tests i took.

    What shocked me was my verbal score (I thought I had reasonably done well on this section). The 21 I got was around 12-14 points lower than my GMAT preps.

    Now I am really scared to take this test again. What's the best way out for verbal.
