I took the verbal section alone of mgmat tests. Got a 28 and 29. 
I have been getting 45 to 48 in the Quant section. With less than a week for the exam, I am not sure, what else I can do. I have revised at least 3 times, the concepts for CR from power bible, SC from Mgmat. In the latest Test, I found 2 main areas I consisteently make mistakes in CR - Assumption & Evaluate /conclusion questions.
In SC - I have revised all chapters including the advanced topics. and when I see the mistake pattern, I get one out of one type wrong, and one out of same type correct. So there is no consistency in my mistake. This worries more. The main topics are modifiers, pronouns, verb mood(Subjunctive), parallellism with nouns.
I am also running out of time for last 4 to 5 questions in verbal. Some questions, I bring it down to 2 asnwers, and pick the wrong one. I have noticed, atleast 5 or 6 of them in the incorrect answers. Not sure why I get confused. May be sometimes I over think and also this is where I loose time also.
RC - its almost 70% hit rate. Depnds ont he passage. Some passages are so dry or abstract, I loose concentration. Any tips?
Now for the score I want, I am looking to do part time MBA. I would be the happiest person if I got 650 or more. Would be happy with 630-640 also. I cannot postponse the exam now. I already did once.
Please advice!!!!!!! thanks.

I too sail in the same waters may be on a leaking boat. Hovering around q44,v33.
Regarding your SC questions, i think you have to revisit the consepts and understand them better. But, you do not have lot of time left. Hence try to make your strength areas even more stronger. That will boost your confidnce levels.
How about trying some timing strategy? I too have problem with timing in verbal section. But in the last mock i fared better by strightly following the timing as below.
Time. Q.no
60. 9-10
45. 17-18
30. 25-26
15. 33-34
If i slip beyond 2 mins in every step, i guessed 1 or 2 every other question to gain some time.
Hope this helps you.
