I’ve been consistently scoring around 40–50 in my mocks, but every time one section seems to drop significantly. My VARC has now fallen to around 20 marks, even though it was better earlier.
I’m not sure how to approach this. Should I focus on improving my weakest section first, or work on making all three sections more consistent? Also, how can I prevent one section from crashing in every mock?
Would really appreciate some advice on how to break out of this 40–50 score range.

Hi, If you look at most of the toppers they usually do outstanding in one section, I.e they achieve 99%ile in one section and above 96+ in the other 2.

Pick the section you like most and focus on that and try scoring above 90%ile in the other 2 just to ensure you do not mess up your sectional cutoffs.
