Taking Gmat for the 3rd time...need ur inputs

Hi frenz,

I am an Indian/26/Male working with an MNC for the past 5 years.

Acads wise i have been a consistent topper with a distinction class through out my 10th/12th/Engg.

I do not know why iam so petrified with the thought GMAT.May be because i failed at GMAT twice in the last 2 years.

I took my first gmat in 2009 and got 610 (Quant 49/Verbal 23). Second time i took it in 2010 it was 590 (Quant 48/Verbal 23).it took me 2 months to get out this ...i was quite depressed..how can my score be lower than my first attempt after 2 months or rigorous prep.But i feel somewhere something went wrong which i am unable to understand.

I am again planning to take it in 2011.This time not for the sake of any B School , but only to prove to myself that i can get pass this 700 mark which has become a mentalblockade for me.

I understand i have to work more on my Verbal in the order of CR -> RC -> SC.

I need your help in regards to choosing material to push my verbal scores.

Pls help me fight this battle with your inputs.

Thanks fellas,
