Hey Guys,
I took the GMAT on Monday and didn't fare as well as I would have liked to(650, 44Q 35V). I was scoring 680-710 on the veritas practice tests, but only took one GMATPREP test and got a 650 on that, so i guess i should have seen the score coming. My VP tests tell me that I am close but GMAT and GMATPREP tell me that I am off by a little bit on verbal.
Any advice on how to approach the next 32 days( I signed up for a Dec 3 test as i would like to apply round 2)
I know i have to continue to practice both but any suggestions or plans on how exactly i should tackle this and with what resources/study materials.
Thanks in advance for your advice, this community has been great for my prep.

Hm... good question.
It looks like you can improve both Q and V with Q probably needing a bit more attention.
I would get a MGMAT Arithmetic/Number properties and Word Problems and make sure you are as comfortable with those books as you can. If there is any weakness, lack of clarity, foggy, etc - make sure those are gone.
On the verbal side, I would focus on what your weaknesses are and where you would want to dive deeper (SC, CR, or RC). Not sure where you would require the most help.
One idea - that you should not forget is that MANY courses offer a score guarantee or money back and since you have taken the GMAT already you will have an unconditional guarantee unless you improve 50 points (Knewton and Economist), 5 points on Verbal with eGMAT, and some with Magoosh - remember to read the terms and conditions CAREFULLY!
