I took some advice from one of my friends already pursuing MBA about GMAT.
And he told me to give a shot at one of the GMAT Prep test. So i did (Without any preparation)
Scored 560(Q43,V24). What i realized from my score was that i need great improvement in Verbal. And also DS questions in Quant.
I am planning to give my GMAT exam(First attempt) in the first week of September.
So i have a whole 3 months time to work on my score. Any particular study plan that i could work on.
Is it possible to improve my score to a 700+ , considering i would be start preparation from today onward (21/05/2016). I can afford 2-3 hours on weekdays and 8 hours on weekends.
Your suggestions would be really helpful.

Yes, it is possible to improve the score. 3 months (with the hours mentioned) should be sufficient. As far as first phase of the prep is concerned - you need to learn the basics of Quant and Verbal. (Select an authentic source to get the basics done). Post that you need to apply the basics to Official Questions. (Typically official guide and official review books). Once this phase is over - you need to test yourself and figure out areas that are week and need more practice.
Revision is the key for last 30 days and 5-6 mock papers for last 10-12 days.
All the best.
Hope it helps.

Hi,
A 3 month timeline to prepare for the GMAT is good enough. Use your GMAT mock test scores as a direction to start your prep with.
As you have mentioned, Verbal needs attention at the moment. Get down to learning the basics first in Sentence Correction, Reading Comprehension and Critical Reasoning. I would suggest that you keep a good 2-weeks (on the higher spectrum) for each of these topics. Once you are a little confident with the concepts, get on to solving problems for the OG 15 or OG 16. Use ONLY official questions while you practice - no other material comes close to them (Refrain yourself from downloading free question bank PDFs online
)
Also, a key point to your study plan must be your Error log. Write down a detailed explanation when you get a question wrong - revisit the concept and solve the question again. This will help you identify concepts quickly on the GMAT. You must know that on the real test you will have just 2 minutes for each question. So familiarize your brain to think under time constraints while practicing.
A word of caution here - Your Quant seems good now, but don't completely neglect it during your preparation. Push yourself to score a Q49 - Q51 consistently on the Mock tests that you would take. Even a one point increase in Quant can push your total GMAT score up by 4-points! So don't neglect Quant from your study schedule.
To start off with, here are a few videos that can help you:
1) GMAT Timing strategies
2) 5 Challenges to overcome on GMAT RC
3) Understanding the Subject-Verbal Agreement concept in SC
4) 5 mistakes to avoid in Critical Reasoning
5) Strategies for GMAT Quant - Problem solving and Data Sufficiency.
