Hi everyone, this is my first post in this forum but it seems like people here are very helpful. My overall was a 600 (Q 42 V 31) It is a weird score for me since I was scoring in the 37-40 range in practice (quant). During the quant section of the real thing I felt like I was completely screwing up, but I actually ended up with a respectable score (for me). The verbal is where it gets weird. In the OG 11th ed I got nearly EVERY SC and CR correct. Trust me, Im not bragging (how can I with a 600?) but I definitely thought I should have done better than a 31 because I felt like I knew what I was doing (unlike the quant). I feel like I can do much better but the problem is that I studied very hard for about 3 months and I have used all the material (princeton review, Kaplan, OG 11 and OG quant) To me these books seem to be geared towards the low to mid 600 range.
What recommendations do you have for some one looking toward the 670ish + range?
What difference does not answering the last 1-3 questions in a section? ( I didnt get to the last 2 in quant and still got a 42 and I didnt answer the last 2 in verbal and got a 31)
I know its a long sad post but thanks for reading

I highly recommend Manhattan GMAT guides for bringing your quant score up. Feel free to read my Verbal Tips for some advice on improving verbal. MGMAT's SC guide comes in mind right away too.
In the quant section, you are not punished as much for not answering the last 2-3 questions than you are in verbal. Although it is more important to finish the verbal section within the allotted time, here is my advice: ALWAYS answer all the questions in both questions, even if you have to 100% guess.
Practice all the problems under the timed conditions.
Take GMATPrep and MGMAT CATs to nail your timing down.
Good luck!
