So, I appeared for the GRE today and got 159 in quants which is pretty devastating for me. I had two sections of quants and 3 of verbal.

Out of 40 questions I wasn't sure about 3 questions (2 in second set, 1 in first set). I was getting answers easily and had no confusion, no time lapses. I fail to understand where did I go wrong and I guess there isn't any way to know about it either.

I have appeared for GMAT and got consistently Q49. So, not that my quants is weak.

What can I do?

The exam gives you a report even though usually they need ten days

No I don't have the report, just the raw score, took the test today. How will the report help?

Hi Onit!

I have experienced something similar. I used to score 49-50 on GMAT and a 161 on GRE. After getting this score, I tried to find out where did I go wrong. It was not that I did not know a topic or question, but the confidence that yes, I know all of it and then doing the question wrong. The second thing is GRE does not gives question as straight forward as it seems to be, what I mean is it does has some twist which the test-taker skips and gets the question wrong. Even though GRE questions are not difficult, but while you take a test the stress/ over-confidence could be a game changer.

Hope this helps!

Regards

D

Hi Carcass thank for you this but I am not sure the score report details my performance the way you have shown on the link. Can you tell me how it works or do we have to purchase an additional ESR kind of thing here?

not sure in the red part what you meant to be

If you have the GRE official exam or you buy the powerprep plus, whatever it is, the exam's report is in that fashion on the link above!
