A 700+ score is definitely possible! It really depends on you, how much time you're willing to spend preparing for the exam, and your aptitude for taking it. I've had students increase by as much as 200 points on the GMAT, and of course, on this forum you can read about many people who have scored 700+.

If you can be more specific in your question though (for example, are you having problems in math or verbal), I might be able to help you more.
