Hi akshayuberoi,

Before I can offer you the specific advice that you’re looking for, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:

Studies:
1) How long have you studied? How many hours do you typically study each week?
2) Have you taken any other CATs/mocks besides this one? 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)?

Goals:
3) What is your overall goal score?
4) When are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,

Do not rely on Jamboree's videos...You will waste next 6 months of your GMAT prep and in the process you will become exhausted...

They do the mistake of teaching with OG 
SC is just based on preferences
RC they dont teach at all. They will just make you solve 10-15 passages.

Only good thing Jamboree has mocks and sectional tests

I have studied for 2 months.

I did 12 jamboree mocks before this

Scores were of range 620-720

Scaled scores were not accurate i think in these mocks.

My target is 680-720

My target school are bschool in india, SG and Canada

I was a student at Jamboree and EGMAT.. didnt liked both the courses

Joined TOP 1% and it has helped a lot. Will suggest you to do so

Your quant score is stellar. If you'd like to keep practicing, make sure to pick up the  Advanced Official Guide.

For Verbal, it would help to know what in particular you're struggling with.

Our "Free GMAT Prep Hours" on Youtube have loads of free verbal content, though, for all question types.

650 is a great start! Regarding prep courses, in addition to seeking advice in this thread, take a look at the GMAT Club reviews for  the best quant  and  verbal courses , and also read through some  GMAT success stories  to see what materials have worked well for other test-takers.

Also, would you like some general advice on how to improve your verbal and quant skills?
