Dear All,
I recently gave my third attempt of GMAT and scored 700 (Q-50, V-34, IR-8, AWA-5 ). As I was scoring around 730 in the official practice tests, I am planning to retake GMAT by mid-November to reach my target score of 730+.
Need your suggestions in deciding what material to use and how to best utilize the next two months for a higher score in Verbal.
After my first GMAT attempt in October last year, I realized verbal is my weaker section. Hence, I joined eGMAT's Verbal Live course in mid-may, same time when I re-started my preparation.
Material used:
Official Guide 2016,
Verbal Review - 2,
eGMAT Video Course,
eGMAT Scholaranium
Official Question pack.
I scored between 34 and 40 in all the official practice tests (with the average of 37). Thanks to eGMAT, I don't think I have any conceptual gaps in Verbal. Though not sure how good I am in application of concepts.
I struggle a lot with timing. (Just had 13 mins left for last 10 Qs).
I also don't feel very confident while doing Verbal. Pressure of getting initial questions right get on my nerves and I am very bad in handling that pressure.
In practice tests on a good day I was scoring 39/40. Need to make sure that this score becomes a habit. Kindly suggest what steps I should take. Also, what should I do to take care of timing and speed?
As I have already taken eGMAT's course, should I subscribe to any other online course or should I try and extract more from the current course?
Which extra material will be good to take my preparation to next level?
Will be grateful if someone can help.

Try to implement the things I mentioned and you will see great improvement.
