I wrote gmat last year and got a 700. During this summer I have studied to retake it and I am aiming for >730.
On my last official Cat I got 740 (49Q 42V). I had 5 wrong answers in PS and 1 in DS. There were 3 wrong answers with a common theme, namely questions regarding series of sums or integers (like, how man integers are there between x and y that is a multiple of 2 but not a multiple of 3). I have and will keep practicing on these type of questions until its time to write the test. The other wrong answers were not because of a lack of knowledge in math, but rather because of the difficulty of the questions. I couldn't finish the questions quickly enough so I guessed and continued with the test. I have a magoosh membership which I use to study math if you are wondering.
Regarding the verbal part, here it is the SC that is pulling me down. In total, I had 6 wrong answers, 4 in the SC and 2 in the RC. I have the Manhattan SC book which I find very good and it has helped me to increase my SC-score quite a bit. My plan here is to keep reading in the book and applying the knowledge from the chapters on relevant questions from the OG. I do not have a specific plan for CR and RC except that I have found some nice books that I read when I am done studying for the day.
I also have one more official Cat left to do, do you guys have any idea how I should use it?
I am grateful for any tips you can think of.

Hi Hayek96,
700 (88 percentile) is a great score to build upon. It indicates good grasp over concepts and process to solve GMAT questions. From here on, you must plan to improve iteratively. You may follow the below mentioned steps to do so:
All the best!

- Step 1: Take a Verbal Ability Quiz and a Quant Ability Quiz on Scholaranium
Step 2: Identify the top 2/3 weak areas (topic level) and work upon them using e-GMAT free content or your current resources
Step 3: Repeat this process till you reach your target score.
All the best!

Hi Hayek96,
Before I can offer you the specific advice that you’re looking for, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:
Studies:
1) How long did you study before taking the Official GMAT the first time? When did you take the GMAT and what were the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores?
2) What study materials did you use for your 1st attempt?
3) How long have you studied for this 2nd attempt?
4) Were your recent CATs in the current/shorter format or the old/longer format?
Goals:
5) When are you planning to apply to Business School?
6) What Schools are you planning to apply to?
