Hi,
I have been studying for GMAT close to 2 months and I have my GMAT scheduled for 23rd of this month. When I started studying for GMAT, I took the official GMAT Prep and scored 680 (Quant 49, Verbal 32). After spending a month and taking MGMAT (scoring between 630 to 670), Kaplan and MGMAT SC guide, I took the 2nd official test again and scored 680 (Quant 49, Verbal 33). During the verbal part, I almost ran out of time as I tried my best at SC questions.
I was wondering about a strategy where I can put least amount of time into SC and try to get 500-600 level questions right and spend majority of my time getting RC and CR questions right? Is it possible to get 36 in verbal that way? If I get 36 in verbal and maintain my quant score at 49-50, I can hit 700. What do you guys think?
Thanks,

Yes you can get 700+ without doing that well on SCs. When I first started studying I'd miss about 60% of the SCs and finish with a 720 (Q50 V39)... but I nailed 90%+ of the RCs and CRs.
TBH its probably easiest to improve your verbal by improving SC and CR instead of trying to improve RC... RC is hard to improve in a short period of time IMO.
