Hi Prateek
I have seen some expert gave you really wonderful advice. I am not a GMAT expert but I see as a test taker I did exactly what you are doing. So my 2c as a test taker.
When you are starting try not to jump straight into practice tests. I started at 380 (official score). I dint study anything from the first test. Just went to test the depth of the water. Expensive mistake lol. anyhow once i completed the official test I tried give as many tests as possible but trying to learn from the tests itself (which is not the right approach). The correct approach is to learn the basics first and then take tests.
As you learn to remember and apply the basics you will see scores improve with time. One needs patience and commitment. Also, there are experts in the forum to always help you.
Buy a set of books and course you prefer then take your time and sit down and study (without worrying about the score). Good Luck!
