Hi,
I have my exam lined up on 24 June 2010. Like all i have referred following:
1. OG 11,12
2. Manhattan guides
3. CR bible
4. GMAT prep tests (2)
5. Manhattan tests (6)
6. Gmatclub tests (M15, V2)
7. 1000 series (around 150 Q each)

My scores in Manhattan and preps are in the rage of 680-700 with the breakup of M48-50 V34-38. I am targeting atleast 730-740 that would require additional 6-7 right Qs in verbal. I am now planning to buy GMAT Verbal guide for additional practice and take free practice tests available on the forum. I will also be taking 12 days office break before the test to practice full time for the test.

Can anybody comment on practice strategy and any thing else that would help me to increase my score to the target levels.

Please also comment on the prep strategy during last 12 days,

Drink lots of fluids and get plenty of rest/don't do anything you don't normally do on test day

Analyze incorrect problems and practice

gmatcracker2010, I am not a GMAT guru nonetheless would like to suggest you a few things:

1) It's very improbable that you will you improve in quant since you already have a very high score. On the other hand you have a big room to improve in your verbal. So I would spend 80% of the remaining time on verbal and 20% on math (just to keep your current level).
2) Is English your native language? If not, I don't think that you can expect miracles to happen because improving your language skills is a rather lengthy process.
3) Use error log and spend more time on the concepts where you make mistakes.

How long have you been studying?

All in all, you have to concentrate on spotting your weak areas and improving them.
