Well! From what I could gather from your excel. You are not doing justice to your time if you havent atleast 'targeted solving 1000 questioins each in all the sections. And by that I mean, including reviewing and reattempting the ones you did wrong in sets.
Some advice from my end:
1.) Gmatclub tests are awesome but way irrelevant to actual test difficulty. Use Gmatprep and Veritas prep.
2.) Aim for 90% accuracy in all sections. that way if you are able to have ~90% accuracy in 4 out of 5 sections and 50% on the last, you can still score a 720+
3.) Its not about doing new problems or as many problems as you can. But as many times as you can. If you do a set of 200 and fail in 70, red0 that 70 set later. Out of 70 you will still do wrong in 30, redo that 30 ..so on...you have already attempted 300 times out of a 200 set.
4.) SC requires grammer knowledge / intuition. Be clear of what parts of speach can follow or come after others (things like that untill its second nature)
5.) Spend 3-4 minutes reading the RC throughly. Dont attempt to use tricks like, spotting first and last parts of paragraph. Its time waste.
6.) CR bible from powerscore in THE BIBLE.

Thank you I will try to
- work on questions and mark them out for revision
- try avoiding Gmat prep (I am targeting 700 so i think I should concentrate on basic)
Initial i started my prep with OG and started doing question for Quant after 100 each for PS and DS i realized that I am doing basic level mistake, I was able to identify what concepts to apply in a given question but was not able to identify proper shortcuts and was doing lot of silly mistake (I am using a manual error log) so then i decided to read manhattan to ensure i revise concept mark out tricks for revision.
