First Mock Test : Terrible!!!

Expert replies

I wrote my first mock test today (GMAT prep). It was terrible. I just got a 560. Quant 45 - 71 percentile. Verbal 23 -29th percentile.

My biggest problem was that I had a huge time management issue.

In IR, I could solve 11 questions. Out of which I had to rush the last 3 questions (all 3 were wrong). I got 6 Correct. 5 wrong. And 1 un-attempted.
I don't think the questions were tough. I just panicked as I had spent way to much time on the initial questions.

In Quant, I could only attempt 32 questions. Here I got 12 questions wrong. Most of the questions that I got wrong were towards the end. When I went back to review them, there were many silly mistakes. Again, I had to rush the last few questions, due to time constraint.

In Verbal, I could just attempt 33 Questions. Here I got almost half my questions wrong (16 wrong). I personally think that I need to give a lot more focus on verbal (especially SC), as i felt that my preparation weren't good enough.

Prior to writing my mock, I went through the concepts and did a few problems from all topics. Though, I never checked the time i took to solve any question.

I am depressed about this score. Could someone please tell me how to go forward from here. And what is my realistic chance of getting a 700+ score on my actual GMAT?

I am planning to write my GMAT in another 2 month's time. I can easily put in 3 hours a day and a lot more on weekends!

Please Help!!

Thanks in advance!!

hi sarangjn,

Could you give more details concerning your preparation? Have you already used the materials that you mention while preparing to the last test in December?
