I gave GMAT 2 days back and got very disappointing results 380 (Q32,V 12).
I studied 4 months from MGMAT(all 8 books) plus Kplan premier and verbal book.I solved all P.s and D.s from OG 13 and Quantitative review 2nd edition.I didn't do all verbal questions and i think that was my mistake.
I gave 5 MGMAT test and got 510-520 ,which made me believe that i am in good shape to get 500.
I am very weak in maths that is why i study hard and tried to solve each and every problem again i got wrong.As i am a non native speaker i used Mgmat sentence correction book as most of you suggested but it did not helped me.
Now i have to give GMAT again but i cannot wait for more then 2 months as i will forget maths then..
Please suggest what should i do to improve my scores.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Dear Ahz,
I'm sorry to hear about your difficulties, and I am happy to respond.
First of all, on the all-too-common problem of scoring much lower on the real GMAT than on your practice tests, see this blog:
https://magoosh.com/gmat/2014/lower-on- ... ice-tests/
Your statement "I cannot wait for more then 2 months as I will forget maths then" tells me you are not thinking strategically. You need to do more math every single day! Every single day, you need to practice both math and verbal! You keep everything current by unrelenting practice and review. For example, you said you studied the MGMAT books, which are excellent. You don't have everything from those books assimilated --- what kind of review would you have to do so that you own almost everything in those books?
Flashcard can really help you keep your memory sharp. Here are some GMAT flashcards, one set for Idioms and one set for Math:

Here's a three-month study plan. If you follow this diligently, you will see tremendous improvement:

I think Magoosh could really help you. We have 150+ lessons, covering all the Q & V content & strategies you need. Here's a sample SC lesson:

Here's a DS question:

Here's a SC question:

When you submit your answer to either, the following page will have a complete video explanation. Each one of Magoosh's 800+ GMAT practice questions has its own VE, for accelerated learning. That's precisely the kind of immediate feedback that you need to move forward quickly.
I hope all this helps you, my friend.
