Hi anksm22,
In one of your prior posts, you mentioned that you had scored V27 on a CAT, so this recent score is right in line with your prior work. It's a sign that you continue to "see" and react to the Verbal section in the same way. This shows that you have the capacity for consistency (which is good); unfortunately, this Verbal level is not enough to help you hit 700+.
With 4 days to go, you can't expect to make any radical changes to how you handle the GMAT - you've established your habits over months of studying, so you're unlikely to change them on such short notice. HOWEVER, you can do some review and try to analyze WHY you're getting certain types of Verbal questions wrong. If you can find any little/silly mistakes and fix them (keeping them in mind when you take the Official GMAT so you can avoid making those same little mistakes on Test Day), then you might be able to pick up enough points to have a marked improvement in your scores.
There was also a discussion that you would possibly taking the GMAT again in November - if you choose to retest, then you'll have another 31 days to study. This would give you a greater opportunity to learn/practice/master some new Verbal tactics.
GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
