Hi All,
I am preparing with TOP course consistently, my exam date is on 30th Oct. I am still making silly mistakes on Quant like calculation error or misreading question stem, accuracy of this section is around 90%, in verbal speed v/s accuracy is my enemy, in practise for Verbal I am able to get accuracy of around 72%, being said that DI has been improving with time and accuracy, getting accuracy around 75% for the same. I have last 2 weeks left and confused between how I can increase my score from 620 to something above 705. I am trying to build a working strategy for exam day, as sometimes I feel a question left is 3 questions correctly answered. So how I should bring about this strategy, what kind of questions I should focus on what I can leave given the 2 week window.
Also, I am looking for mock tests which are closer to GMAT level, as it feels, TOP mocks are at least 2 level above of what GMAT generally asks. I have read questions & answers by a lot of people in this forum, if anyone can give me any constructive advice for my situation, also just a prerequisite, I can't reschedule my exams, it's more like just one shot situation for me.

Hi OshinFalangie,
Improving from 620 to 705 in just two weeks is not an easy task, but if you work your butt off I think you have a shot. A big part of improving your score in such a short time frame is to find your knowledge gaps and improve your weaknesses. A great way to do this is with topical practice.
For example, let’s say you want to practice Number Properties. You can do so by answering 50 or more questions just from Number Properties: LCM, GCF, units digit patterns, divisibility, remainders, etc.
After each problem set, it's crucial to delve into the questions you answered incorrectly. For instance, if you stumbled on a remainder question, take a moment to reflect. Was it a careless error? Did you fail to apply the remainder formula correctly? Was there a concept in the question that eluded you? This analysis is key to your learning process.
By carefully analyzing your mistakes, you will be able to fix your weaknesses efficiently and, in turn, improve your GRE quant skills. Number Properties is just one example; follow this process for all quant and verbal topics.
