Hi,
I took the GMAT yesterday and haven't been able to come to terms with the reality till now. I knew I was weary in Verbal but was not expecting such a result. Continuously scored between 640 and 700 in the mocks but ended up with a dismal 550. I am planning to take it gain in November (which gives me around 2 months to improve on verbal) so that I don't miss the deadlines. I would like suggestions on how to improve the verbal score and what material should I use as reference. I had used the OG, Veritas question bank and mocks from Kaplan and Manhattan. No formal training on how to tackle the verbal was taken (I think that was the fault).
So shall I purchase a good online verbal course or join classes for it? Anecdotal info will be really appreciated.
PS: My accuracy while solving paper based questions is around 75% and for online question banks is about 60%.

Hi Priyanka! Our sentence correction book Sentence Correction Nirvana is perhaps the only book that offers a score improvement guarantee, and is especially designed for non-native speakers.
After reading the book twice (yes! it's an academic book, and so must be read twice in all seriousness, to reinforce the concepts), you will start looking forward to solving SC questions!
The book is available on Flipkart and Amazon.in. You might want to refer to these sites, to also read testimonials of how readers have benefited.
If you want to sample a chapter before deciding to go ahead with our book, please PM me your mail-id (along with the chapter that you would like to sample) and I will be happy to send that chapter to you by mail.

Sounds like you have the traditional story -- strong quant, weak verbal. Grammar rules are one area you'll need to solidify. The other is thinking strategy. When you combine both with great time management skill, you'll be able to improve on the exam. At GMAT Pill, we recommend learning video -- it's a much easier medium to process information and to learn in real time. I encourage you to click around.
