Help required - GMAT verbal

Hi experts, bb, egmat, abhimahna, KarishmaB, souvik101990

Trust you all are doing well.

To start with, I am a big fan of all you. Thanks a lot for contributing to GMAT club and helping people like me.

I gave my GMAT on August 8, 2018 and got a very low score (below my expectations).

Score - 520 (Quant - 41 and Verbal - 21). My target score is 700. I have attached my ESR, for your reference.

Quant mock scores - Got Q49 and Q46 (due to connectivity issues wasn't able to see two problems and hence, guessed on those and got them wrong - otherwise could have easily scored at least 47) in GMAT prep test 1 and 2.

Verbal mock scores - In MGMAT mocks my scores in verbal used to range from 30 to 34; have attached the sectional reports of two MGMAT mocks, for your reference.

not stating the verbal score of GMAT prep test 1 and test 2 because in test 1 - I got panicked in middle half (as I consumed too much time in first half - PS: I got 95% of questions correct in first half) because of which the other half went for a toss (and hence, got a low score) and in test 2 - I got two RCs back to back in first nine questions and skipped both of them because of which I think the level dropped drastically (PS: accuracy close to 70 percent in both CR and SC). (by the way got V21 and V19 in both tests)

I noticed that MGMAT mock and GMAT prep test are quite different - I am talking about the writing style and the content. I was quite comfortable with the MGMAT writing style and the content; I was easily able to comprehend in one go (as you can also see from the sectional reports of MGMAT mock). But in GMAT prep, it was taking a lot of time to comprehend and even after that I wasn't able to do it fully (same problem faced during the exam). I used verbal review and OG for practising SC and CR and was quite comfortable with them.

Issue with me: After giving the GMAT prep tests and the real test, I noticed that I was taking a lot of time to understand the meaning of the sentence in sentence correction. For CR, I think I am still ok - but would want to reduce my time. What would you suggest now? which materials should I use now (i don't want to use any non-official material now)? should I take up any online crash course? if yes, which one would be most helpful? i didn't practice RC much - biggest mistake - what would you suggest for RC ?

For quant, I can still manage. I think I must have done silly mistakes on the real test.

For your reference, I have mentioned below the materials I used for my study

Materials I used for my study:

SC - Manhattan strategy guide (as my target score is 700 didn't do the extra chapters ie chapter 10 to 12 - as Manhattan guide states that if your target score is above 700 then only do them). Watched all 'Thursdays with Ron' videos. They really helped a lot, I must say.

CR - Powerscore bible

RC - Manhattan guide

Used GMAT Verbal review and OG for practising SC and CR. I didn't practice RC much - biggest mistake I think.

Please guide me - I am really confused now. R1 deadlines are just nearby.

Look forward to hearing from you. If we can have a short call to discuss the above - that would be great.

Please provide me with your email id - so that I can send you my ESR and MGMAT sectional report. I am little uncomfortable to share my ESR and MGMAT sectional reports in public.

Many thanks in advance !!
