Weirdly, I scored completely average on the math for the GMAT despite an engineering and math degree and pretty much aced the verbal without any studying (figured out early on I needed to focus on studying quant, which I hated the test). But, I probably had a heavier English background than most people taking the test as I worked for newspapers and did a lot of personal writing for many years. Guess it's all about how you line up against the field in some cases.
