Folks,

I have been preparing for GMAT since last 1.5 months. Your continuous support and tips have been really a big influence on my preparation. Below are my practice scores -

MGMAT1 - 570 [Q41, V 28]
Power prep 1 - 690 [Q48, V 38]
Power prep 2 - 690 [Q49, V35]
Peterson 1 - 750 [Q60, V40]
MGMAT2 - 670 [Q47, V 34]

Its obvious I am lacking on verbal :( . I am planning to take 1 week off from work. Planned my GMAT in 1st week of July. I have also taken GMAT challenge.

Kindly point me to some good verbal material, which will help me in the section.

Regards,
Cumic

Not really considered "material" but I found the verbal forums on GMAT Club to be a great asset to me. I learned so much from reading the logic behind other people's answers as well as from providing detailed answers to other people's questions.

I have found OG 11 and MGMAT SC very good for verbal training and practise.

Wow, to take a week off work to study the GMAT. I wish you the best! Do you know which part of the verbal you are struggling with? LR? SC? RC?

I am all over the place in every section :) Problem is I am not predictable on my verbal at all. Sometimes RC is worst among the three, sometimes Sc and sometimes CR.

Given my situation, I need to build some strategy. I am probably going to focus on two of these three sections.
