Hi all,
I appeared for GMAT in 1st Week of Aug 2022. I studied for 2 months using OG, and Manhattan Verbal Prep. I appeared for all the 6 OG Mock Tests and was comfortably scoring 700+. (Maths - 50, Verbal 34 - 39). However, in the actual test i scored only 660 (Maths - 49, V - 30). I have rejected the score. Verbal is very weak area for me.
I want to re-appear for GMAT, but with some focused prep. Verbal is an area where i am not sure now how to begin and how to improve. Also, i am currently working in a high commitment environment (70 hours a week), and left with limited energy and will power after each day work.
With a very generic profile, I have to score 740+ to get in my desired schools.
Please guide me on how to plan my prep going forward, with constraints that i can prepare dedicatedly for 2 months with not more than 2-3 hours per days. Also, i will take 10 days leave before the GMAT Test.

Hi 9nit,
I'm sorry to hear that Test Day didn't go as well as planned. When these types of score drops occur, the two likely "causes" involve either something that was unrealistic during practice or something that was surprising (or not accounted for) on Test Day. Before we discuss any of those potential issues though, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:
Studies:
1) Over the last 2 months, how many hours did you typically study each week?
2) On what dates (or approximate dates) did you take EACH of your CATs/mocks and how did you score on EACH (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?
3) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?
If you took your Official GMAT at a Test Center, then you might also choose to purchase the Enhanced Score Report. While the ESR doesn’t provide a lot of information, there are usually a few data points that we can use to define what went wrong on Test Day (and what you should work on to score higher). If you purchase the ESR, then I'll be happy to analyze it for you.
