GRE was a challenging test for me which started with a blend of verbal and quantitative reasoning tests and transitioned into a more difficult second section on the same topic. This test turned out considerably harder in the second section since my performance was very good in the first section. I believe that examiners have configured the GRE test in such a scaled manner to ensure balanced scores among test takers. Given my relatively comprehensive preparation, it was unsurprising that I aced this test.
I believe that I made a particularly strong performance in both the verbal reasoning sections and the first quantitative reasoning section. My outstanding performance in verbal reasoning tests, including reading comprehension, sentence equivalence, and text completion, was because I made meticulous analysis of all passages and utilized the elimination process appropriately. Besides, the first section of quantitative reasoning was equally matchless because I tackled questions carefully but quickly before the final submission.

However, my weakness in this GRE test was the second section of the quantitative reasoning test. I tackled the first section of this test quite rapidly because it was relatively easy. In contrast, I focused on answering the second section's test methodically and slowly while double-checking all the answers. Therefore, little time was left as I approached the test end, which made its difficulty increase significantly. Having little time, I was compelled to make many guesses at the tail of the test, thus hurting my performance in this second section.
Improving in this second section will entail better preparation and meticulous time management during the test. In preparation, I will focus test preparation efforts on testing all likelihoods in quantitative questions given their tricky nature if even one possibility is ignored. This is especially true for the multiple-choice questions with more than one selection, quantitative comparison, and data interpretation questions.
Improving time management in the real test means that I will have to slowly tackle the quantitative test's first section focusing on accuracy while answering the second section focusing almost solely on speed. In other words, by tackling the second section faster than the first one, I will have sufficient time to confirm answers in the first section, thus maximizing performance.
