Hii
This is Asha from Kolkata. I have appeared twice for GMAT as of now and stuck at exactly 640 in the both the attempts. Verbal is a big hurdle in getting a good score and facing tme management issues in that.
I am planning to appear again in approx. 3 weeks as deadlines are approaching.
Since, there isn't much time left, please guide with a solid strategy plan for atleast a 700.

Hi,
There are many study plans available on GC. However, for your specific case, please elaborate on 1) what study resources you have been using so far and 2) breakup of Verbal and Quant scores along with time gap between the 2 exams that you have taken, so as to help you in determining a study plan.

Hi AshaMajumder,
Many GMATers find some aspect of the Verbal section to be challenging - so you are not alone. The Verbal section is as consistent and predictable as the Quant section is, but Verbal questions have no 'safety net' - meaning that if you make a little mistake or miss a vital piece of information, then you will convince yourself that one of the wrong answers is correct (and not realize it). If you're consistently having trouble with that section, then you may have developed some 'bad habits' that are keeping you from scoring higher - and by extension, you might need more than just another couple of weeks of study to hit your Score Goal.
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) On what dates did you take your 2 Official GMATs and how did you score on each (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores)?
2) How long have you studied in total? How many hours do you typically study each week?
3) What study materials have you used over the course of ALL of your studies? What “brands” of CATs/mocks have you used?
4) 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)?
5) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?
If you took either of your Official GMATs at a Test Center, then you might also choose to purchase the Enhanced Score Report. While the ESR doesn’t provide a lot of information, there are usually a few data points that we can use to define what went wrong on Test Day (and what you should work on to score higher). If you purchase the ESR, then I'll be happy to analyze it for you.
