I got a 160 on my most recent exam. I’m wondering how I can use this to identify gaps most usefully?
I know I ended up spending a fair amount of time on questions I got wrong - for example 04:17 on Geometry question #3 in the second section. Other than improving my geometry fundamentals what else would you recommand?
Related, can someone confirm that I got the “hard” as opposed to “medium” second quant section?
It looks like you missed 5/9 QC questions and missed 6/15 of the pure math questions, compared to missing only 2/12 real-life questions.
Since you only missed 3 in the first section and 11/15 of the questions in section 2 were level 4 or 5, (compared to section 1, which only had 3/12 lvl 4/5), I think it’s safe to say you got the hard section.
It is more than that. How good are your foundation? How good are your strategies?

Its hard to say how my strategies are.
Choosing Numbers - okay I guess.
Backsolving - weak
Simplifying / Manipulating - good
Equal/Not-equal - good
Pattern Recognition - weak.
Create Easier Example - okay
I wish I had a better way to describe this
The internal statistics I have suggest that your foundation is average (note that it isn’t definitive, but a good indication of where you stood when you took the quizzes).
If you already haven’t, please take one of the two “free” quant foundation quizzes at Quant Foundation Quizzes - GregMat and let me know your score. That is, either the set of the Google Forms quizzes or the Quizizz alternative. The path forward will depend on that.
