Need help in improving verbal score

Question

Hi,
I have given gmat 2 times, and have scored V38 and V39. I scored 730 both times. Someone told me that my gmat score should be around 750 because I am an Indian and am from IT sector. I need help in improving my verbal score. I want to get above V45. I understand that it is a bit ambitious. Could anyone please help me with this?

Hi,

By all means 730 is a par score to get into the best B schools, though it is your choice to re-take, if you think you can improve to 750+. Otherwise spend your time on applications. Indian +IT engineer + male is an over represented community in B schools, and therefore people are quite suspicious about their chances.

For moving from V 39 to V 45 would be a difficult task and certainly you need to check your ESR and gauge the areas where you are lacking.
