How to improve V27 to V35+

Question

I have taken GMAT twice and each time i got 27-28 verbal. ( I am a non-native speaker.)

Can someone refer good plan and material to improve in Verbal?

Planning to retake GMAT by last week of May 2012. i am working as a Manager at large cap so the time is limited.

Thanks in advance for your advice.

Is there something in particular that you're having trouble with? What materials have you used so far?

I have used OG and Manhattan Tests?

RC and Inference questions on CR are still a challenge for me.
MGMAT test 1 score 690 Q49 V32 - after getting only 1 right answer out of 12 RC questions

On SC i am getting around 75-80% right.

Do you have access to Powerscore's Critical Reasoning Bible and Manhattan GMAT's SC Guide? I highly recommend the first and the second one invariably gets amazing reviews on here. For RC, I strongly, strongly suggest developing the habit of reading texts (fiction, non-fiction, current events etc) that you would not usually read for fun. That way, you'll step out of your literary comfort zone and be more comfortable with unfamiliar/daunting texts.

For RC, it's not just the reading is important but the more important is to comprehend the passage, So a plain read may not help you so much as a particular strategy will help you.
You may check out my signatures below to device a strategy for urself. For practice, i would suggest you to pick up the file that contains more than 400 passages, it's there on the RC forum.
