Hey guys.
First off, great site. The amount of information on here has kept in GMAT study mode for the last few months.
Ok, so here's the deal. I took the GMAT and scored a 570 (37q, 31v)
and I am shooting for 600+ with mid-600s being the goal.
My study materials so far have been the Kaplan Premier Guide, Kaplan Verbal & Math Workbooks, and OG 12.
I worked all the way through the Kaplan materials and worked through some of the OG
(I know I need to work all the way, which is part of the plan this next go around).
I know my weak points are definitely in quant, specifically number properties, inequalities and ratios.
In the verbal section it's SC that's really getting me.
I have gone ahead and order the MGMT series and they will be arriving shortly.
Is it possible to bump my score up to mid-600s in 1 month?
Any advice you guys might have for how to effectively spend such a short amount of time to break the 600 barrier?
Thanks in advance

If you're taking the GMAT on 9th December, then you have just 22 days to go. Though a substantial score increase in unrealistic within such a short span of time,but I think that a 50 point improvement is achievable.
I always tend to emphasize the importance of having strong fundamentals.
The MGMAT Quant strategy guides are quite good and will help you build strong concepts in the areas you may not be comfortable till now.
For sentence correction, work on the basics.I cannot overemphasize the importance of knowing the fundamentals well. You'd agree with the fact that spoken English is quite different from grammatically correct english and moreso from the "GMAT type" of English. MGMAT SC Guide and SC Grail may help you build your fundamentals well.
Take around 8 CATs and I think you should be good to go.

Yes, your goal is possible.
The key to overcoming your deficiencies is maintaining a proper error log. The GMAT is not like regular school exam or test. Your score is only as good as your weakest section.
