Hi All!
I attempted the GMAT twice. Once in June and once in August. And bombed both the attempts. Attempt 1 (360) Attempt 2 (320). The small gap between the two attempts was because of the program i was targeting (YLP-ISB). I started preparing a month in advance on my own and screwed up bad on the first attempt. For the second attempt, I joined a GMAT class (Jamboree) and screwed up on that too.
For the first attempt, I gave it all i had. My term break was on so I would put in 5-7 hours daily.
Preparation for the second attempt was difficult as i was juggling between college and GMAT class.
I referred to the following set of books:
(ATTEMPT 1)
OG 13
GMAT Quantitative Review 2nd edition
GMAT Verbal Review 2nd edition
(ATTEMPT 2)
OG 13
GMAT class Material and handouts.
I have decided to give GMAT again. But this time I have a bigger time frame. Of about 5 months and I hope to achieve a score of 700+ in this third attempt.
I have taken the diagnostic test and I am below average in both quant as well as verbal. And I can't understand how to start my prep.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

based on what I read it seems that you should get a private tutor who will assist you during your GMAT prep and who will give valuable tips and tricks how to effectively study for the GMAT. It seems that you are not the person who should self-study (there is nothing bad about it)!
