Hi, everyone. I recently took the GMAT and scored a 680 (Q48;V34). I've been told by an admissions consultant that I need to take my score across the 700 mark. I need to get this done in max two weeks because deadlines are right around the corner. I think a major increase in score would have to come from verbal, although I'll try to squeeze another point or two in Quant.
I really am in a need of solid advice as to how should I move forward with this. I'd really appreciate your help.
Thanks so much.

Hi Louis14,
A 680/Q48 is a fantastic Score, so while I would certainly follow the suggestion offered by the Admissions Expert you referred to, if you have a strong Overall profile then this Score might be enough to get you into your first-choice School.
Based on your deadlines and Score goal, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on your timeframe and studies so far:
1) What 'brands' of CATs/mocks have you used so far? On what dates (or approximate dates) did you take EACH of your CATs/mocks and how did you score on EACH (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?
2) For your next attempt, are you planning to take the At-home GMAT or are you planning to take your GMAT at a Test Facility?
3) Going forward, how many hours do you think you can consistently study each week?
You might also choose to purchase the Enhanced Score Report. While the ESR doesn’t provide a lot of information, there are usually a few data points that we can use to define what went wrong on Test Day (and what you should work on to score higher). If you purchase the ESR, then I'll be happy to analyze it for you.
