- GMAT Score:640
All,
I took my test today. I could complete the Q section on time.
In Quant section, I saw all basic questions and thought that I was not performing well, but I was surprised to see 50.
I did not write verbal with full concentration. I took more time for the first few questions, and was left with 14 mins for the last 10 questions.
I thought that I will atelast get a score of 680. but I am very depressed aftering seeing a score of 660. Really dont know what to do now..
This is my third retake.. (620, 640 before)
This time, I got good scores in GMAT Prep
My socres were
GMAT Prep1 - 740(Q50, V41)
GMAT Prep2 - 680(Q48, V35)
GMAT Prep1 - retake ( 750, Q50, V42)
GMAT Prep2 - 690 (Q50, V32) ( While writing this test, i was not at all interested, so, did not wirte this well wtih much concentration.)
Also, I wrote all the tests with AWA. always with new topics
Otherwise, about 85 to 90 percent of the questions that i saw in GMAT Prep were new ones. and my strike rate was also very good, except in the last test.
But today, The first SC Question was cryptic, and I think I got it wrong.
Also, Questions were very hard compared to GMAT Prep. and I lost focus, The passages were also very sick, I totally bombed my Verbal.. I think I guesse on most of the SC's. I could not really concetrate on RC(which is my strength).
I really dont know what to do. I am planning to apply to schools in the top 20. I know this score is not good.
I am a Indian IT Engineer,

lot of extracurriculars..
Please someone tell me what should I do now.. I am lil confused..
Also, If I want to take GMAT Again, how to restart my preparation.?
