I took about 15days off work and socializing too to prepare for the gmat. A lot of people seemed to believe that its too much time and that i'd eventually beat the gmat.
My verbal at the beginning was a good 36-38 with the test and so i started working on quant. Over time i became pretty efficient in both.
Even touched 720 + on the GMAT prep and Manhattan but on the final day...neither did i blank out, nor did i give into the pressure..
just that questions in verbal were of a level that caught me off gaurd and they were tough beyond the OG / Manhattan level.
May be lack of conceptual knowledge or a bad approach to verbal may have resulted in me getting only 27 in verbal but I am not going to give up and thus if there is a recommended book(s) for me to up my verbal in the next couple of months then please assist me because believe me the questions in teh OG are way easier than the actual test and i am beginning to believe that maybe GMAT Prep isnt the right indicator for the final score.
if there is a structured approach with questions i must aim at, please guide me through it.
