I have attempted GMAT test once in last year & twice this year, Failed successively in each & every test.
GMAT # 1 : 610 Q : 47 V : 27
GMAT # 2 : 620 Q: 48 V: 28
GMAT#3 : 610 Q 48 V 26
I covered almost each & every section, did various mocks such as :
GMAT Club Test Quant : Consistently scoring 49 in majority of test
Verbal : Scoring 32 in Gmat club test .
Mock test Scores :
MGMAT : 650 to 680
GMAT prep : 710 & 700
I don't know what happens to me in actual gmat , I have given GMAT thrice, My dream B-schools are are 700 range.
Need your suggestions what to do, Whether I should drop idea of GMAT ?

Looking for some serious guidance

well, one thing is clear - your scores are consistent.
I think you need to go and analyze what is dragging your verbal score down. There are some basic rules that help you eliminate a lot of answers and find the right one.
The Kaplan GMAT 800 helped break down some basic verbal rules for me (not a lot of questions there though). I also have the MGMAT CAT exams and reviewing their answers also taught me a lot of rules. I wouldn't retake (if at all) until you are fairly confident with that part of it.
Good luck!

Dear LS,
Most people are unable to ace the GMAT because they are unable to apply the concepts successfully on the GMAT. Below are a couple of students who have been in your boat and were able to perform substantially better once they figured out how to apply the concepts:
third-time-is-the-charm-600-to-161157.html
https://e-gmat.wistia.com/medias/elyiasoemw
We recently conducted a free session on GMAT RC. Go through the recording and try solving the questions discussed in the session. It will allow you to evaluate your approach as well as your ability to apply.

If you want to try a course then look at our Verbal Live Prep offering or GMAT Live Prep offering. Both guarantee solid score improvements. With GMAT Live Prep, we almost guarantee a 700 for someone in your shoes.
ISB Session
On a different note, we recently hosted ISB's Senior Director of Admissions. You can view the recording of that session below:

I hope the above helps.
