I'm pretty sure I scored a 795

So guys, I just gave my GMAT. I felt it was going horribly. Got I believe 5 fucking RC passages in Verbal. All >1 para ones. The first 3 RC passages were back to back starting from Question 1.

Basically massively struggled with time management in Verbal which was my first. Was already demotivated. Then I had DI which actually went pretty well. Finished just in time but I had to pee soo bad during DI that I was counting down questions in the end. Took my break, peed, fealt better.

Then I had my nightmare of quant. Quant was way harder than I had in any mock. Time management was out the window. Took me 10 minutes on the first 3 questions. At every question I felt so much behind in time. In mocks I've usually finished quant 6-8 minutes ahead of schedule with a Q90 or Q89. In the actual exam was just struggling. Skipped a question that I felt would be long to just catch up on time.

Actually ended up doing like 4 straight questions in 6-7 minutes so that helped.

I thought I had done horribly but then the provisional score flashed 795. I was in disbelief. The invigilators could see me shaking. The column next to it was percentiles. 100, 99, 100. This is what I remember reading. I was shaking so hard and in such disbelief, I actually closed the window.

Got out of the centre, and then based on my previous performances where I've felt so much under pressure in verbal, with there literally being questions I had no time on and basically choosing answers where I wasn't a 100% convinced, I think I've convinced myself that it was a 695 and that I hallucinated the rest. I don't remember the sectional scores at all.

Waiting for the actual result with my fingers crossed. Hoping for the best.

And hey, considering maybe I did get a 795, if there are any GMAT coachings that would like to buy me as a student. Hit me up in DM. I did not actually take up any coaching, was all gmatclub, YT and OG.
