Hi faiyazhussain,

Since you have a list of Schools that you plan to apply to, you would likely find it beneficial to speak with an Admissions Expert about your overall profile and plans. Those Experts should be able to answer your Admissions questions (including the type of GMAT Score that you might "need" to be considered a competitive Applicant) and help define the specific areas of your profile that could use some improvement. There's a Forum full of those Experts here:

https://gmatclub.com/forum/ask-admissio ... tants-124/

Before I can offer you the specific advice that you’re looking for, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:

1) Over the last 2 months, how many hours did you typically study each week?
2) Have you used any other study materials besides the books that you listed? What “brands” of CATs/mocks have you used?
3) 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)?
4) When are you planning to apply to Business School?

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,

The fact that your verbal score is fluctuating indicates that you have concept gaps or that your approaches to answering verbal questions aren't robust enough to get you to correct answers consistenty.

For example, in CR, some people eliminate every choice that uses the word "some." That method sometimes works and sometimes doesn't work. So, people who use methods like that sometimes score relatively high on verbal and sometimes score much lower.

I'm not suggesting that your methods are as hit or miss as eliminating every CR choice that uses "some," but it's quite likely that there's something about your approaches that's resulting in hit or miss performance. So, to consistently score high in verbal, you likely have to adjust how you are answering the questions.

For some insights into how to make your approaches to answering verbal questions more robust, see these posts.
