Consider checking out the debriefs on the Share GMAT Experience sub-forum.

Here, for example, is a debrief from a Verbal student (6 hours) I had this quarter (680 to 740 in roughly 30 days):

Hi IApple , If you go through some debriefs, you might get some strategies and advice. If you want to buy tutoring sessions, then do not hire a tutor without gmat club verified score. https://gmatclub.com/forum/my-journey-f ... fl=similar Best Wishes!

Hi IApple,

You posted a similar messaging (seeking this same general type of information) approximately 2 weeks ago. Have you done any studying since then?

Since it sounds as though you're just beginning your studies, then it would be a good idea to take a FULL-LENGTH practice CAT Test; you can access 2 for free at www.mba.com (and they come with some additional practice materials). If you want to do a little studying first, so that you can familiarize yourself with the basic content and question types, then that's okay - but you shouldn't wait too long to take that initial CAT. That score will give us a good sense of your natural strengths and weaknesses and will help provide a basis for comparison as you continue to study. A FULL CAT takes about 3.5 hours to complete, so make sure that you've set aside enough time to take it in one sitting. Once you have that Score, you should report back here (or you can feel free to PM me directly) and we can come up with a study plan.

It's also worth noting that a particular approach that worked well for one person might not mesh real well with YOUR sensibilities - meaning that instead of trying to 'copy' someone else's approach, you might be better served finding a set of study materials that fit well with how you best study. Most GMAT Companies offer some type of free materials (practice problems, Trial Accounts, videos, etc.) that you can use to 'test out' a product before you buy it. We have a variety of those resources at our website (www.empowergmat.com). I suggest that you take advantage of all of them, then choose the one that best matches your personality, timeline and budget.

I'd like to know a bit more about your timeline and goals:
1) What is your goal score?
2) When are you planning to take the GMAT?
3) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?

Hi IApple, From my experience of scoring 740, here are 3 things that I would suggest you to do. Long post ahead, but I'm sure it would help 1. Strategize properly - this is the most important step and most people either don't spend enough time on it or do it the wrong way. Let me explain this step. First thing you need to do is understand your strengths and weaknesses then accordingly break down the target score to sectional targets. For example, if you're very comfortable with one section, let's say Verbal your target should be to maximise your preformance there and get a decent score in Quant. However, if you don't think you're really good in one section then it is wise to have a balanced target. Once you have done so, identify what's holding you back. Generally one would find out that he/she is bad in Geometry or CR or SC (a ESR helps in this case), but what one should also do is identify why he/she is weak in these areas. For example, you could be weak in CR because you have trouble understanding the scope of the argument and choose options which are out of scope. I would recommend taking help from an expert to understand what's holding you back. Feel free to write to me if you need help here. Then create a plan of action to reach your target score from your current score by devoting enough time to your weak area and for practice. 2. Have an application centric approach - most people learn concepts and jump into practising questions without focusing much on following a structured method. The result is that they are either confused between 2 choices or end up eating a lot of time. If you follow the right approach to solve questions, you will not only solve them in optimal time but also have high accuracy. 3. Follow the right test taking strategy - Since GMAT is an adaptive test, it is important that you strategize differently for the different quarters in each section. For example, in Quant if you can manage to get a 100% accuracy in first 15 questions then even with a low accuracy of 40-50% in the rest of the questions you can get a Q47 kind of score. Check out this video : https://youtu.be/taL5gEKAQOE You need to build your skill level to do so and practice this strategy in mocks. Hope this helped!
