The gmatclub study plan post could be a helpful read. Browsing/searching the Share GMAT Experience subforum for posts by people who've made similar score jumps to the target score you desire could also be helpful.

Hi Ankit2112,

From your posting history, it appears that you have been studying for some time. If you are currently 'stuck' at a particular Score level, then it's likely that you developed some 'bad habits' during your earlier studies that will take time to fix). Thankfully, the GMAT is a consistent, predictable Exam, so you CAN train to score at a higher level. Before I can offer you the specific advice that you’re looking for, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:

Studies:
1) How long have you studied? How many hours do you typically study each week?
2) What study materials have you used so far? What “brands” of CATs/mocks have you used?
3) On what dates (or approximate dates) did you take EACH of your CATs/mocks and how did you score on EACH (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?

Goals:
4) What is your overall goal score?
5) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?
