Today I took my first diagnostic GMAT exam. I haven't studied any of the core materials and managed to score a 600 (40Q and 32V).
However, my timeline for taking the real GMAT exam is very short.
I plan on taking it May 28.
Can anyone suggest strategies of implementation to understand the core materials in Verbal?
I know for a fact my weakness is in sentence correction. More than half the questions missed were sentence correction in my Verbal section.
Note: I am not a native English speaker.
Any and all suggestions appreciated!

Dear cliev003,
My friend, first of all, I am going to suggest this blog, written with non-native speakers in mind:
How to Improve Your GMAT Verbal Score
It's not a trick I recommend there. Quite to the contrary, it's the difficult habit of daily reading. For a non-native speaker, doing at least an hour of day of challenging English reading, over and above any other GMAT preparations, would be one of the habits of excellence. The best way to catalyze improvement is GMAT score is to practice the habits of excellence assiduously.
I discuss the habits of excellence a little more in this blog article:
GMAT Study Plan for a 700 or More
Now, for improving in SC in particular, I would strongly recommend Magoosh. We have a large library of video lessons on GMAT SC videos. Here's one for free:
The Missing Verb Mistake
Here's a free SC question:
Quintus Horatius Flaccus
When you submit your answer, the following page will have a complete video explanation for the question. Each one of Magoosh's 1000+ GMAT practice questions has its own VE: this kind of immediate feedback, right after the question, is exactly what non-native speakers need to advance.
Does all this make sense?

What score do you need?
If you're shooting for 650, simply improving your performance on the Quant is sufficient.
