Yes, there's lots of good info on here! I read some great advice before I started. Here's what I've found helpful:
1) Do practice questions on weeknights, one question type at a time. How long doesn't necessarily matter; it's more important to get in a groove and be able to work through weaknesses and understand them before you move on to another type. Of course, if you're beating your head against a wall, take a break, ask for help in the forums, and/or move on to something else (another question type, some physical exercise, watching mindless tv...).
2) Do timed practice tests on weekends. Fully review the test and look at what you did wrong. I don't know about all the other tests, but my PR tests group your results by question type. Then you can click through to each problem and read the answer explanations. By focusing on one type at a time for the review, you can pick up patterns in your errors quickly.
3) For SC, definitely work on your grammar skills. I have a book called Grammar Smart and it's pretty useful. PR is good for verbal, and lots of people recommend MGMAT for that too.
4) For RC, it's really a matter of reading a lot...it's the hardest to improve for the GMAT, so work on non-GMAT reading to boost your RC. Stuff that makes you think, like the literature we had to read in advanced high school English classes, or science/business pubs.
Hope this helps!!
