At one point, she believed GMAT wasn’t for her. After scoring 595, self-doubt crept in and she questioned her potential. But instead of quitting, she made the right strategic changes. The result? A remarkable comeback to 695. Check out how Saakshi did it.

Hi All,
I took GMAT on 20th Nov and scored a disappointing 590 (Q:48, V:23). I was scoring in the range of 33-38 in Verbal in my practice tests. I am planning to retake the GMAT again around (8-15) February 2011. I have 2 months which I think is ample time to improve my verbal (Please correct me if I am wrong here.)
I am trying to gather my broken dreams and have put together study materials which will get me to at least 700. If you can please review the list and let me know your comments/suggestions as it will improve my confidence a bit....
Quant: I bought GMAT club tests before first attempt. I think I will solve them again along with OG12 PS/DS questions (repeat). I dont think I have anything new to learn there. Just need PRACTICE....
Verbal:
RC: I have RC-99 which I will solve over the next two months.
SC: I have read Manhattan SC but I am still making mistakes in SC. I did maintain an error log. I think I will read SC Grail book and then go over the Manhattan SC again. Then I will solve 1000 SC, OG12(repeat) and OG Verbal (repeat).
CR: I thought my accuracy was higher for CR but my disappointing Verbal score doesnt reflect it. I have read PowerScore CR but it was too dry for me. The strategies were too long and sometimes inapplicable. Do you guys think I should try Manhattan CR for my second attempt? I will also solve 1000 CR (LSAT).
Practice:
What do you guys think about Grockit? Is it worth to spend $80? I will be mostly practicing Verbal questions.
Practice tests:
I have exhausted my practice tests collection by giving Manhattan CATs (1 to 6), Princeton 1, GMAT Prep 1 and 2. I can give Kaplan this time and if I buy Grockit, it comes with 5 CATs. I can also take 800Score.com tests.
Guys, Please advise me. I will really appreciate it. Thanks a lot!!

Hi,
Well, I am going to try to answer point by point. You do have a strong quant part, so let's just forget about that, you don't need to study this anymore. Let's focus on the verbal then.
-practice test: have a look at that, it will give you some ideas:
all-gmat-cat-practice-tests-links-prices-reviews-77460.html?highlight=ml502
from what I heard, GMAT Club test are quite good and challenging. Maybe you could use them to improve your verbal
-as far as books ar concerned, I think you do have pretty much everything. Maybe you could have a look at "SC grail, aristotle", which tend to be a good complement to MGMAT SC.
Try to read as much as you can (the economist is pretty good for that), this will defnitely help you improve the verbal.
Maybe you should try to work on your stamina too, as the verbal is the last part, that might be the resaon for yoour score: try to do a lot of questions with fewer pauses and no distractions: this definitely helps.
Let me know if this was helpful

by the way, I think all the MGMAT books are worth it, so just use them for your areas of weaknesses... I think this will help you.
for the practice tests, have a look at this thread:
gmat-prep-power-prep-official-free-gmat-tests-77548.html
it will give you a couple of extra tests, this is helpful for training, and simulating real gmat conditions.
