Hi shaanaa22,
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) What type of study routine have you been following? How many hours do you typically study each week?
2) What study materials have you used so far?
3) How have you scored on EACH of your CATs (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?
Goals:
4) What is your goal score?
5) When are you planning to take the GMAT?
6) When are you planning to apply to Business School?
7) What Schools are you planning to apply to?
Since you're also asking Admissions questions, you would likely find it beneficial to speak with an Admissions Expert about your overall profile and plans. There's a Forum full of those Experts here:

Hi Rich (@EMPOWERgmatRichC),
Thank you so much for your response. Here is something about what I have been doing:
Studies:
1) What type of study routine have you been following? How many hours do you typically study each week?
Honestly, I do not have a routine as such and I have been a slacker as well. I have been spending 15 hours per week at max on an average.
2) What study materials have you used so far?
I have practiced
OG'16 for Quant and Verbal. I took a Maths Revolution Quant Course last summers which really helped me with the concepts. At any point, I don't feel I don't know how to approach a question, it is usually silly mistakes happening here and there or small details that I miss. Sometimes while solving a question I figure that I have done something wrong and I re-do it and lose precious minutes. Verbal has just been mostly self-study and special thanks to GmatClub Grammer Book and
GMATNinja 's Webinars.
3) How have you scored on EACH of your CATs (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?
I took
GmatClub Tests a couple of times earlier and I got Q42, Q47, Q47 Q48 in a non-timed environment. I felt it was impossible for me to finish these tests timely, so I used to extend the time by the end of the tests.
Rest of the CATs:
Official Gmatprep:
Test1: 640 Q43,V35
Test2: 670 Q49V31
Others:
650, Q44,V35 (CR50%,RC71%,SC64%)
650, Q46, V33 (PS50%, DS58.33%,CR77.78%,RC50%,SC53.33%)
640, Q41,V36(PS59%, DS36%,CR80%,RC50%,SC57%)
Goals:
4) What is your goal score?
Targetting for 700+
5) When are you planning to take the GMAT?
Latest by June'19
6) When are you planning to apply to Business School?
This year, September onwards.
7) What Schools are you planning to apply to?
ISB and European BSchools (not shortlisted but preferably German such as Manheim, WHU )
Hope this was all the information you needed. Thanks a ton,
EMPOWERgmatRichC!
Best,
