If you're in the 300-400 range, that means you need to focus on content, study math and verbal concepts, then run through the OG questions
That being said, you want about a 200 point rise, that may not be possible by the 26th, you may have to take the test again later.
If you do, I recommend signing up for a class such as Knewton, it should get you to a higher score
well i have my gmat on 26th nov..

Like I said, focus on your content, You should get the 8 Manhattan GMAT books and the Powerscore SC and CR books and read them all, go through all of it, really try to understand it, then work through the Official guide questions, that should get you ready for the test.

Private tutoring (even the online ones) will help you zoom in and improve upon your weaknesses.

Hi Nenekar,
A score between 390-420 in practice is not good at all! What you might be missing more than the practice is the time management. You will need to devote equal time to each section and start practicing from the scratch. Try to go though as many solved queries to point out your weaknesses. Apart from this you might need to change your practice style and try this combination to provide you flexibility and different styles to practise so it doesn't get monotonous.
1-Books- Books like- The Official Guide for GMAT Review, The Official Guide for GMAT Verbal Review, The Official Guide for GMAT Quantitative Review etc could be used.
2-Online Study Guide: Websites like Knewton, Grockit etc provide you with practise questions online.
3-Smart phone applications- Kaplan, Veritas etc offer applications to prepare for GMAT on your smart phone.
Hope this would help you. For any further queries feel free to ask us.
