Query forwarded from an article by Stacey

[bubbliiiiiiii]

Hi All,

I have recently went through an article written by Stacey. The question I asked required forum to discuss things. Since, Stacey doesnot respond to forums on BTG, I request other experts from MGMAT (Ron) or from any other GMAT Teaching house (David, Payal, Rajat, Mitch, Geva) to address this.

Please suggest.

For quick reference, I am copying the query here.
Hi Stacey,
Thanks for writing this article.
From the article I understand that the timing could hamper the scores on GMAT. If I try to answer the questions too quickly or too lately (taking more time to answer) then scores are affected even though I commit a few mistakes on the GMAT.
From my set of practice tests (4 tests) that I took last week I observed my overall GMAT score to range between 660 (Q47, V32) and 690 (Q51, V32). The max that I can touch on verbal was 33. I think I have soldified my score at a minimum of 660. However, my target is 720+ and I believe that I can achieve my target by working on Verbal to raise my bar from 32 to 38+ baselining quant at 47. Could you please advice me how to proceed further?
Regards,
Pranay

Please help.

I am no expert but you can raise a couple of points in Quants. Just see how many people with 600-650 score have Q50 on this forum. With Q49 and V35 you would be in the 690-710 range.
