Hello Experts,
I recently got my ESR and now I am toying with the idea of writing the focus. I need help with three questions:
1) If I were to write the classic GMAT in one month from now, how do I improve on Quant? What should be my strategy as I need atleast a Q49/Q50 to reach 750.
2) Should I switch to the focus? As both my weakest subsections will be eliminated- Goemetry + SC.
3) The Data Insights scares me as I am not a fan of MSR(Hate that). I had a bad IR performance this time but in my last two attempts, I had a 7 on IR. Should I try focusing on doing Data Insights for the next one month?
Would really appreciate any help from the experts, thankyou

I would strongly recommend you to stick to classic GMAT. You are almost there! Your timing strategies are impeccable.
You are at V42 even if you are not happy with SC. Just maintain that.
For Quant, there are obvious areas of improvement - Number Properties, Sets, Statistics and Geometry. You are brilliant in Arithmetic and Algebra - it means you have a high aptitude. All you need is a push in your areas of weakness. Work hard on them for a month. Thereafter, you should get a 760+.

Keep in mind, Focus is the new edition of GMAT. It is a different test and you will need to put in a lot more effort to switch. It is worth it in some cases but not all. In your case, I don't think it is worth it at all.

Might be worth checking out some of the similar posts. Perhaps google "Q49 to Q50 gmatclub", for example. If you can improve the Verbal, a Q49 V44 could hit your target as well.
How to get a V40 or higher on the GMAT? What about a V51?
