Hey,

At the end of the day it's just an exam. You have got a good score in your first attempt. Verbal scores are un predictable as they vary a lot if you answer few easy questions. It might just be the pressure you put on yourself proving counter productive. Take a chill pill. Take a break. Go for a vacation. Come back and analyse what went wrong. Even with 660, if you write killer essays, you can get into the school you want. DM me if you want any help.

I agree with prodizy. I'll be posting my story in a bit, perhaps some of the recommendations I put up will help. My first attempt: 600. Second attempt 32 days later: 710

"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."
