Hi,

I have prepared for GMAT for about 2 months. I did cover all areas. I started giving mocks tests from MGMAT and GMATPrep . Here are my scores:

MGMAT 1 (June 2nd): 590 (Q42,V28)
MGMAT 2 (June7th): 600 (Q45,V29)
MGMAT 3 (June 29th): 630 (Q44,Q32)
GMATPrep 1 (July 1st): 660 (Q49,V32)
MGMAT 4 (July 4th): 670 (Q45,V36)
MGMAT 5 (July 6th): 600 (Q42,V32)
GMATPrep 2 (July 17th): 660 (Q50,V31)
MGMAT 6 (July 21st): 690 (Q45,V38)
GMATPrep 3 (July 24th):710 (Q 50,V35)
GMATPrep 4 (July 30th): 770 (Q50,V44)

GMAT (July 31st): 660 (Q49,V32,IR-7)

I am completely disappointed looking at 660 on the screen. After the last GMATPrep I was confident that I am in the 730+ range. But I am not able to understand what went wrong on real GMAT in verbal section. I finished my verbal section with right timing and I was at 32nd question with 18minutes left. To my knowledge I fumbled in 2-3 SC questions and 3 RC questions where I could not make right judgement between the two options I am left with after POE, completely dejected looking at 32 verbal score.

I am planning to give GMAT again in 2 months time can any one suggest me some strategies on cracking verbal (I mean getting a score of 40+).


Cheers
