I would strongly recommend you take a prep course or get a GMAT math tutor.

I don't think one month is enough prep time if you're trying to increase your score by 200 points. That would be a huge increase, and you're going to need time to improve your fundamentals and learn GMAT strategy. Most prep courses are about two months. Even if you find a one-month course, it would be intensive and would be hard for you to complete if you're taking summer classes also.

If you're really nervous about not getting in, focus more on the GMAT this summer and don't take extra classes, or consider dropping one of them. If you're too busy with other work, it will be impossible to get the score increase you're looking for.
