Sorry if I keep posting threads like these.
It's gonna be the last.
I am just a little desperate.
A. How do you divide your time studying Q/V?
-Do you do Q today, V tomorrow,.. or both?
B. I am hovering around low 500's to mid 500's. I am currently finishing OG verbal and OG quant. I will pick up the OG Review right after. I am trying my best to master the basics. Can you give me an advice?
Thank you guys.
I am really struggling, so anything would help

regarding A: i am not a good example. with B.Sc. in math i invested 100% prep time in verbal, except prep tests (in which i did both). i decided to do it after my first Gmatprep in which i found out that i have no problems whatsoever in the Q section...
which brings me to answer your B question:
given your very average scores, i think that your score is low because there are some distinct areas of weakness. i.e. not erros to overcome but material you should be more familiar with (which eventually results in error).
because of this i'd suggest to leave OG alone for some time. it doesn't help you. it is not "area specific", but a collection of "all around" questions. first you should i dentify your weaknesses by area/skill, then find a book that cover those areas, and improve your skills gradually. only then return to OG to master the "art of getting the question right when you know how to do it"

I spent the first third or so of my time studying for the GMAT doing equal parts of everything just to get a feel for each section. So I spent about 4 week going through the official guide just doing tons of problems, doing about equal time on each section.
Then as I figured out my weak areas, I'd spent a lot more time on them and less on my strong areas. Then the final few weeks I just took as many practice tests as possible which is crucial to understanding timing and pacing.
If I were you I would ask myself these questions: (1) What are my weak areas? (2) Which of these weak areas is the easiest area to improve in, in a short amount of time?
