Study Plan to raise my score from 700 to 710 or 720 18 Apr 2018, 14:39

I took the GMAT last week and scored 700 (Q44, V42). Percentile score is Q52% and V96%. While I am mostly happy with the result, I would have preferred to reach 710 and maybe even 720. Additionally, my percentile results seem skewed much more heavily towards verbal and I would prefer my results to be more evenly balanced between quant and verbal. I am a little concerned that a school would not like my results skewed so much towards verbal. I am strongly considering retaking the exam in two months time. I used the material below to prep for this exam.

MGMAT Strategy Guides for quant and verbal.
Official Guide Quant
Official Guide Verbal
Official Guide GMAT
MGMAT Advanced Quant
GMAT Prep Practice Exams 1-6
GMAT Prep Question Pack 1

What would you recommend for my retake? Should I read all the strategy guides again and do the end of chapter questions? Should I purchase GMATClub tests? Should I just self-assess my weak areas and just re-read those areas in the strategy guides and do questions that pertain to that?

By the way, my weakest areas at this point are Disibility & Primes, Inequalities, and Coordinate Plane.

I think with a little more work, I have a good chance of scoring 710 and maybe even 720. But, I don't want to waste time taking an ineffective approach to my studies. I think with the right materials and the right approach, I could succeed at hitting 710, at least. Please let me know. Thank you.
