Okay, so I just opened my GMAT book yesterday and got smoked on the quantitative section, and I mean really smoked from the OG 12 questions. I probably only got about half of the questions right. It's not that the questions seemed that inherently difficult per se it, but I certainly felt rusty as hell after being away from that stuff for a number of years. Should I be concerned? I plan to hammer practice questions out like no other and hope there's other people that experienced this and who have improved and got decent test scores.

OP, I also did terrible on the OG 12 practice test. If you still have your answer sheet, make a list of the types of problems you missed most often, and focus your attention on those types. You might find it was only a couple of area that truly gave you trouble.
