GMAT Strategy

Hi everyone,
I'm having a bit difficulty.

I was very prepared last week when I took my GMAT. Unfortunately, I did well on the first two parts then I have no idea what happened and I bombed the Verbal and walked out feeling like I was "punked" by my score.

I sat for the exam back in August and also did not do well but this time around, I actually scored 50 points worse.

Did I just ruin my chances of getting into B-school overall?

I agree with Eric. It may just be a matter of recollecting yourself before u do the Verbal and going in with a positive frame of mind and maintianing it throughout. It's always easier said than done but when I took my GMAT I felt I could have done better at Quant. As soon as I finished quant I told myself to forget what happenned with Quant and go in and kill the Verbal section. I ended up scoring a higher percentile with decent prep and a positive farme of mind when doing verbal. How's ur SC section score? We can gain a lot of time for the CR's and RC'S once we solve sc questions on a consistent basis in a minute to minute and a half. If u can provide us with what exactly happenned in the Verbal section we might be able to provide additional pointers.

Good luck!

Thanks for the response. I think that's what happened. I was scoring very well on RC and CR so I focused only on SC. When it came to the real test, I just didn't put the 3 pieces together. Any suggestions for SC?
