Hello guys,
I gave my 2nd serious attempt of GMAT on 1st October. I scored a 610 (Q43, V31). It was a good improvement of 60 points over my last score of 550. I definitely owe EMPOWERgmat a lot for this improvement.
However, 610 is still not a competitive score and hence I am giving one last shot at the GMAT. I have scheduled it for 14th Nov which means I have exactly 1 month to go.
Though, I am extremely happy with the quant content of the course, I was not that satisfied with the verbal content. Hence, I am looking to sign up for the Verbal Online course of E-gmat.
Firstly, does it make sense to study from a new course within such a short time of 1 month or should i stick with EMPOWERgmat?
Secondly, would i be able to take full advantage of the E-gmat verbal online course within 1 month?

Egmat sentence correction is top notch. During practice exams my RC CR were easily at about 90%. SC, on the other hand, was around 30%. Currently pushing 85% after a week of egmat. I can't vouch for anything else but if sentence correction is your problem their tools def help.

Hi sam2016,
I replied to your email, so you should read through the notes/suggestions. I'd like to reiterate that having the ESR would prove quite useful in determining what you should be focusing on in the next round of studies. The Q43 means that you did fairly well on the 'math questions' that you faced, but you would have made a number of little mistakes throughout the section and you would have missed out on a bunch of 'strategy-based' points. The V31 means that you missed some significant points in at least one of the three major Verbal categories (SC, RC and CR). As such, there are likely some specific areas that you could work on to significantly improve your score - so investing a series of brand new resources is probably not necessary.
