Several people have mentioned that the Manhattan GMAT Sentence Correction books is a must have. So that is one which you can add to your bookshelf for tackling the Verbal section.
I have just ordered my copy !

It seems like you are at the very beginning of your prep. My advice is to take some time to develop a solid study strategy. Read through these resources:

Create a study strategy that emphasizes (1) identifying your weaknesses, and (2) analyzing/improving upon them.

What is your target GMAT score?

Good luck!

Thanks to Eric for suggesting the Test Review after the completion.

After skimming thru the Review of GMATPrep which I took yesterday.I could able to figure out few mistakes.

1.In Quant, I mis read 2 questions , did silly mistakes in 3 and forgot the formulas for 2.

2.Most of the Mistakes I did are from SC and CR.

Since, I m yet to start the prep.I guess,If I can work on SC , CR and avaoid wrong readin then I guess, I can reach my target.

Thanks,
~K

Think about investing in the Manhattan GMAT SC Guide--it's the best resource available for SC prep. To see my other book recommendations, check out: https://www.beatthegmat.com/books.html

Good luck!

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
