I was really surprised when the 760 came out! In particular for the verbal part, which I had never scored highr than 37.
I bought a lot of material and I alwas scored below 700, except for the official GMAT Prep, which I scored:
710
720
730 (2nd time I test)
700 (2nd time II test)
I always scored about 50 in the Q part, but always low in the verbal part.
I want to give you two advices:
1) Do the GMAT Prep a lot of times!!! The second time I did it, 80% of the questions were new, and most of these are very similar in structure as the actual GMAT (clearly you have to abstract a little bit in order to see similarities). Also do a lot of material of the official book, especially for the verbal section (Quant is too simple). I did not have the time, but I would reccoment to do each test 3 or 4 time, so plan it in advance!
2) Schedule the test in the afternoon, and sleep till late in the morning: I am not joking! This will dramatically improve especially your verbal part. All the tests that I did I was tired for long jobs hour, etc. Als do not forget to drink a coffe before begining, DO all the breaks with the maximum time, and eat some sweet in the breaks. Remember: verbal part is 50% concentration
Bye!!

Congrate an excellent score!
