Hi there,
I've took the test today. I've got 47 on math section which was 4 more than my previous try. One the other hand, I've got 11 on verbal which was 8 less than my previous try.
My performance on diagnosis test of OG also increased significantly from the last time (PS increased from 9 to 19 and DS increased from 11 to 21).
I can smell the progress in math section undoubtedly. However, my verbal concerns me. Since I am not a native English speaker, considering that my target verbal score is somewhere around 35, is it possible for me to improve my verbal within the guide? Should I dedicate more time to verbal than it's offered in the guide?

Any comment is appreciated :)

Hey amirhakimi,

First of all, congratulations on the quant improvement. There's every reason to believe that you will experience gains in Verbal as well.

Keep in mind that you're only 1/3 through the Study Guide, and you have not yet covered any Verbal content. So, the results of your latest practice test should not come as a surprise. The Study Guide covers everything you need to know to ace the GMAT. So, just keep following it.

It's important to note that Day 42 is the last day for new content. After that, you'll spend the remaining days strengthening weaknesses. So, during that time, you can focus more on Verbal.

I hope that helps.

Cheers,
Brent
