GMAT Focus 1: 685 Q90 V80 DI82

Hi All,
I gave my Gmat focus edition today and got 685 (Q90, V80 and DI82). I am happy with the score and this is on par with my expectations. I want to thank Gmat club and all the experts who have helped me achieve this. However, my verbal score is really low compared to most mocks (I did get V80 in one of the mocks, in others it was around 83-84).
I wanted to check if this score is good enough to get into top 10 colleges in US and Top 5 in Europe? Will V80 be a barrier in anyway and can it be increased within 15 days as I have other commitments post that and won't be able to give much time to GMAT prep.
I don't feel I can get a significantly higher score in 15 days (let me know if I can) but does having a more balanced score help?
A breif about my profile:
An engineering male from Top 15 engineering college (9 CGPA - Awarded merit for being in top 5% of the class). 2.5 years of work ex in management consulting and 2 years as an analyst in Product.
I don't have the esr currently but will upload as soon as I get it.
Thanks for helping

Consider writing a profile-review in the Ask Admissions Consultants subforum. You could include/mention your scoring info, the types of schools you're targeting, and any queries you may have. If you decide to retake for any reason, for CR, Manhattan-Prep's 6th Edition for Critical Reasoning may be worth checking out. For RC, becoming familiar with how inference questions work could be helpful. If you feel your fundamentals are solid, working on your solving approach may help boost your score a bit. Perhaps include working with a study buddy who is really strong on Verbal. If you can find someone who needs help with Quant, that could be a good fit given your Q90. There's a study buddy thread on gmatclub you could check out/sign up to.

Hi Ayushman14,
I don't think schools generally have any "sectional cutoffs;" however, you could always reach out to the folks in admissions to see if they can provide some clarity regarding your verbal score.
