Goals:
4) What is your goal score?
5) What is your exact Test Date?

Hi arif24 , If you havn't studied for long and then you're at V20, then with consistent efforts and right guidance you can reach to V36 in 2 months. but if you've studied for long and not been able to improve much then it's not certain that you would get V36 in 2 months. I would suggest, first find out your weak areas and work on them and when you consistently start getting the desired score, appear for real exam. Please post for any other query you have. Happy to help

I came from V 22 to V 33 for 2 months. It depends on what are your current weakest points.

Hi Arif,

Scoring V36 in 2 months is possible! 
A lot of students, especially non-natives, start with a low Verbal score and improve upon it through diligent effort. It may seem tough if you have already been preparing for some time, but with resources that complement your learning style, it is very much achievable. Here are some examples of students who started out with low verbal scores but eventually achieved their target score.
 • Askul improved from 520 (Q44 V17) to 710 (Q48 V40).  Click here to read his inspiring GMAT journey.  
• Richa followed a methodical approach and improved from 470 to 720 (V16 to V39).  Click here to learn how she achieved this feat.  
• Abhijay improved from 560 (V20) to 710 (V38).  Click here to watch his inspiring video debrief.

How to Improve from V20s to V36 
If you read/hear their stories, you would realize that they all followed a structured process to reach their desired GMAT Verbal score. GMAT tests a student’s reasoning skills through Verbal and Quant questions of different types. To be able to answer any such questions thrown at you, you must develop a structured thought process. Doing so will ensure that you approach the more difficult questions asked at V36 level with as much ease and comfort as you do for questions at V20 level.
