Hi All
As i write this post, I am supposed to sit for the exam in exactly a week's time for now. I have been getting 690 in my practice tests. My aim is 700-710 so I am still shy of the target by 10-20 points.
How should I spend my last week with respect to preparation? What should I do in this last week to ensure I maintain my current level and also to bump up the score by the desired number?

You are remarkably close to your target score and you can get to your score if you remain focussed on the test day.
The last few days should focus on your error log
Make sure you solve the questions that you have got wrong in the OG or the Verbal Review.
If you want to make a mock Cat, do not take more than one and try that it is the GMAT Prep CAT.
TEST DAY TIPS:
A few things to keep in mind on the test day:
1. Do not think about the final score at any point of time
2. Once done with a section forget about it and concentrate on the next one.
3. Take both the breaks. It helps you to freshen up
4. Take a note of the time when you are out for break. Do not exceed the break
5. Do not rush through the last 5 questions in the verbal sections in a bid to see your final score
6. Make sure you complete the section. There is a high penalty for not completing the test.

Hi rajsaha92,
GMAC has publicly stated that the score that you earn on your Official GMAT is within +/- 30 points of actual ability. Assuming a similar 'swing' in your practice CAT scores, you're likely scoring 'in range' of your goal right now. If you haven't hit that score yet though, then you really have to take a good look at WHY you're getting questions wrong. On your last CAT, how many questions did you get wrong because of a silly/little mistake? Those missed opportunities can often add up to some serious points.
During this last week, you shouldn't try to 'cram' in too much work. Some light review is fine and analyzing your prior CAT results would make sense. You'll be best served by getting some extra rest and going into Test Day with a clear head and ready to work.
GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
