Well I have been using the forums for a while now - but I have been off them while I hit OG11 and did every question in the book.
My first Official GMAT was a 640 and I would like to score a 700 - it is a tough goal. However I just took the seconf powerprep test and I have made some moderate improvement in my score - up to a 660 now (practice test). I have 2 more weeks until my second test - I can delay if I choose but I would love to get this quest over with.
I am wondering if there is any last 2 week suggestions to push the score up even further. At this point my weakest links are Sentence Correction and Word problems in the math section.
Anyone have tips?

For word problems use challenges! Everything in challenge is word problem! I am just exaggerating a bit, but most of questions are quite nicely constructed. I will suggest do one or two challenge a day and analyze each and every question, should take around 2 hour per challenge. But if you feel after doing some challenge it’s too hard for you don’t get disappointed.
About SC I will strongly recommend to stick to OG understand how they explain each and every answers. And do SC-1000. I would strongly advice again using other source to do SC because they may or may not be align to OG’s grammar.
I would suggest you do 20-30 SC at stretch and than analyze why did you make mistake? If you don’t understand simply search key word in GMATClub to see how different people are explaining it! While reading explanation on club, rely on explanation of people with large number of post.

How did your scores break down?
Here was my strategy for a 4 week period:
I broke up the math into weekend work and homework. Homework was stuff I did during the week, weekend work was what I called the "master list".
Homework for week 1:
* Math Supplement book, page 62 questions 1-80
* Verbal Supplement book, page 234, questions 1-100
Homework for week 2:
* Math Supplement book, pages 62, questions 81-120
* Math Supplement book, page 149, questions 1-70
* OG Guide, Verbal, questions 1-80 (I forget page numbers now, these are SC)
Homework for week 3:
* OG Guide, Critical Reasoning page 468, questions 1-102
* One practice exam
Homework for week 4 (week prior to the real exam):
* One practice exam early in the week, i.e. Tuesday
* OG Guide, Verbal, questions 80-whatever the last one is (I forget page numbers now, these are SC)
* Review Manhattan SC Guide
* One practice exam late in the week, i.e. Saturday.
Day before the exam:
* 10 SC
* 10 DS
* 10 CR
* 10 RC (questions, not 10 passages)
* 10 PS
* Doesn't seem like a lot, but it takes a while
Master List: (Work I'd do on Saturdays and Sundays)
* OG Guide Page 152, questions 1-249
* OG Guide Page 278, questions 1-155
Its about 150 per weekend (over 3 weekends). You'll find that you slow down a lot on some problems and can take a good 20 minutes understanding their solution. At least I can. So that worked out fine in terms of pacing for me.
