Planning to retake the GMAT. What material should I use?

Question

Hi there.

I appeared for my GMAT last month and scored 660/800. I scored 75 and 70 percentiles in verbal and quants respectively. I am not entirely satisfied with my score. During the analysis of such result, I concluded that lack of quality preparation, rather than lack of preparation caused such a score. I majorly used the study material given by my coaching institute, which was not up to the mark. 
I understand that in order to start my preparation again, the official guide of GMAT and GMATprep are indispensable. However, above this, please suggest some good study material which can be sufficient to potentially obtain a 720+ score when giving the GMAT in the next three months. I need a large question bank for the quants and verbal and some theory references for quants.

Please help.
