Hey Navaljoshi,
I personally believe GMAT is test of Endurance and logic. Though the concepts plays some roles for anyone to understand what GMAT is testing.
First, see where you make mistakes. I believe if anyone who is not in right direction, no matter how many resource they may have, they most likely fall short of success.
So, Try to do the following.
1. Analyse your mock scores and see where you lack. Which concepts needs to be improved upon.
2. If you have trouble in certain concepts like Probability, Permutation & Combinations in Quant- Try to work on them and understand.
3. If it is verbal- Focus the certain topic you need to improve. Understand the logic before jumping for POE. And try to eliminate the wrong answers instead of finding the correct one.
4. Each training company follows different methods rather approach to solve. Follow the approach which best suits you.
The are points are normally generic in nature, i'm stating this based on the info you provided. However, you need streamline your approach to GMAT. Don't just solve problems, understand why correct answer is correct and why wrong answers are wrong.
If you take 2 mins to solve a question. Take 5 to 10 mins to understand the each answer choices to why some of them are wrong and why some of them are correct.
I personally believe, this will untangle the mystery related to solving GMAT problems.
Define a study plan and stick to it. Always maintain an error log, try to go through them.
Hope it helps.

Thanks for the elaborated reply , Appreciated. I understand that i need an approach for each topic and i have in this period able to figure out what suits me best. But i am not able to deliver, one some random day i pick 12 SC set of 600 - 700 level and score 11/12 and another day its 5/12 , this is bothering me , i am really not sure what i need to correct.Some day i do a tricky probability question in a minute and some day i am unable to figure out a mediocre one.I will surely take your inputs. Do you think booking for the real GMAT and going for it can help.. because this way i am just moving in a circle.
