For most test takers, Data Insights is the most challenging section on the GMAT, with test takers scoring several points lower on average on DI than on Quant or Verbal and completing the section with less time to spare. - Jun 10

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.
Quant:
I have been above average in Quant. Actual GMAT scores - 50/49/50. On my second attempt I didn't devote sufficient time to Quant and paid for it with a 49. For third attempt I did sufficient practice and managed to score 50.
Material used:
Official Guide 2016
Officail Question Pack
Referred GMAT club handbook for theory of weaker sections.
Solved around 12 GMAT Club practice test between my 2nd & 3rd attempt
Had solved 5 Veritas Quant sectional tests before my 2nd attempt and scored 51 in most of them.
For my next attempt, I am targeting a score of 51. I need to make sure that I don't slip below 50 in any case. Kindly suggest what steps I should take.
Biggest weakness - Inequalities, Must be/could be true and Absolute Function .[/b]
Efficiency becomes low on 700 level questions in PnC and algebra.
As most of my preparation time was devoted towards Verbal, I have never been able to take corrective actions to improve my weaknesses in Quant. How and what should I do to iron out these gaps? Somehow, even going through theory of GMAT Club math book has not helped. Almost in all questions of weak areas, I am unsure of how to solve.
Any help will be really appreciated.

If you are consistently getting 49/50, your time is much better spent studying verbal, especially if your Verbal is V34. It will be much easier to raise verbal at this point than quant.
