29 Quant and 17 Verbal..

Hi,

I had apprx the same score, and I was one of the best students.
But:
1.english is not my native language
2.I have forgotten most of my math skills.

After couple of months I rised my Verbal score from 17 to 30. My Q went up to 45 - based on MGMAT CATs.

Work hard and learn concepts.

Good luck!

Would studying the OG12, and quant and verbal, be sufficient to score 550? I plan to study these, understand every question I get wrong, why I did it wrong..

Thanks

studying straight from OG questions is a waste a great questions
you need to build your foundation first then go at the OG

the books are cheap

don't aim low, aim high, even if you don't believe you can do it- thats how you will hit your target

Since you are short on time, I suggest you to think about one-on-one instruction. 10-15 hours with someone who can run through the concepts with you personally will make a huge difference...
