How do I proceed?

Hi,

I'm here to get some advice on how I could increase my score from my current standing. I plan on taking the GMAT on the 10th of August which gives me about 3 weeks. I've taken 8 CATs so far including a diagnostic CAT from a Kaplan course. So far I've been doing the prep work assigned from the Kaplan Course and stuff from the OG. I just bought the verbal review OG and plan on starting that soon. My aim is to score around 750, but I'm not sure if such an improvement is possible based on my current methods of study. I study for about 1 - 1.5 hours a day solving problems and I spend about 9-10 hours over the weekend doing a practice CAT and some more practice problems. My biggest weakness happens to be in Sentence Correction. The following were the scores for my previous CATs.

Kaplan Diagnostic 1: 650 (Q:48,V:29)
Kaplan CAT 1: 670 (Q:51, V:28)
Kaplan CAT 2: 660 (Q:47, V:42)
Kaplan CAT 3: 670 (Q:50, V:29)
GMAT prep 1: 700 (Q:50, V:35) I can't remember if Q was 49 or 50
Kaplan CAT 4: 690 (Q:49, V:35)
Kaplan CAT 5: 700 (Q:51, V:35)
Kaplan Free GMAT test: 690 (Q:47, V:39) weird score because i only got one math problem wrong, that too it was the second last one
GMAT prep 2: 720 (Q:50, V:38)
