One week is too early to make any decision. A majority takes this exam after many years of formal education. Check out the resources on this forum. Set your target score and work towards it. You need to be patient with this exam.

Hi Mani,
I hope that you won't call it quits, yet. I have seen Veritas students in their 40s and 50s master algebra when they hadn't seen it in years. It didn't come back as fast as riding a bicycle, and it took a lot of dedicated hours of studying. What you need to ask yourself is if you have the time and dedication to be able to get the score that you need.
Also, if you are scared you may want to work on some test anxiety management techniques. I used to suffer from terrible test anxiety, and then learned that I could do much better if I just saw each test as an opportunity to solve interesting problems. I used that technique on my one and only shot at the GMAT, and it helped me get my 750.
Best wishes,
Tatiana
