Hi,
I started my GMAT Preparation a few months back. I read Manhattan Verbal Books and purchased Experts' Global Mock Tests. I was quite consistent in Mocks and scored ~730 on average (ranging from 710 to 760). I scored 740 in my GMATPrep-1 (Q-51, V-39), and 710 in GMATPrep-2 (Q-51, V-35). I gave my GMAT this 12th October and scored 650 (Q-51, V-27, IR-7, AWA-4.0). I didn't know exactly where I went wrong (I faced an issue at the Exam Centre which might be an excuse from my side but I would like to put it so as to get any guidance on how to avoid it again - The issue was that Examiner asked me to close the marker while not using it as it might get dried because of AC, and while giving Exam I was unable to do that because of the exam flow, eventually drying-up the markers. I literally asked 5 times for the markers).
I assumed marker thing as an excuse and bought e-GMAT Course so as to prepare in a better and structured way. To know my current level they asked me to give a Diagnostic Test (SigmaX-Mock1) in which I scored 730 (Q-49, V-40). Now, I am preparing from this course from last 20-25 days, and gave an Experts' Global Mock-12 today in which I scored 760(Q-50, V-42). Finally, my question is how should I judge my current ability so as to avoid the mistakes which I did the first time. Kindly help me over this.
Thank you.
