Hello everyone,
I have taken the GMAT 5 times now. It feels exhausted for not getting the desired score. The following are the GMAT scores:-
GMAT 1 - 450 Last year March
GMAT 2-590 Q 42 V 30 Last year November
GMAT 3-480 Q 36 V 24 This year April
GMAT 4-530 Q 29 V 25 This year May
GMAT 5-580 Q 44 V 26 This year June
After the 5th test I just wanted to jump from the test center because I was devastated by my verbal performance. I have had too many worse feelings after the tests because all I wanted was a score of 630 and nothin more. The following are the materials I used:-
OG 11
OG Math
OG Verbal(Partly)
Kaplan Comprehensive

Kaplan 800
Manhattan GMAT-Geometry
Manhattan GMAT SC,RC and CR.
I followed the manhattan techniques of diagramming for CR and the RC techniques of manhattan for the 4th and 5th test. Diagramming did not help me much and consumed a lot of time. I did ok on the SC as well.
I need real help on how I can increase my verbal score. I have an admit for the MBA program at Pepperdine University but because I dont have a strong GMAT score I did not get any scholarships. So I have decided to defer my admission for next year and write the GMAT one last time in December this year. It may sound funny but my target score is a 700 and I would not settle for anything less.
So, all said I have 6 months now and I need strong strategies for attacking the verbal section and some help on the math section as well.
Please help me guys..

"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."
