Hi gmat.jyothi,

Your Quant ability is very strong, and I would suspect that you'd score in that same range on your next GMAT. Your Verbal scores have kept you from the strong overall score that you're looking for. Moreover, based on the trend in your tests it appears that you're "guessing" a lot during the Verbal section (probably narrowing down the answer choices and talking yourself into choosing one) and you're missing points in all 3 major Verbal categories (SC, RC and CR). Your self-studying has taken you as far as it can, so you're going to have to make some changes.

For many people in your situation, I recommend investing in a GMAT Prep Course option that is online and within your budget. Your Quant scores show that you have a real strong analytical ability, but you need help in transferring those skills over to the Verbal section (and you would probably benefit from learning some Verbal tactics and Grammar Training). Based on your timeline, I'd suggest that you enroll in the EMPOWERgmat course for 24 hours (it's free!) and if you don't like it, then cancel (and you won't be charged). You'll benefit from the advanced verbal tactics, learning how to use Main Point and Author's Focus to answer questions and the easy-to-follow Pairs Training for Grammar rules.

If you have any additional questions, then feel free to contact me directly.
