Hi sharbh,

To start, a 560 is a decent 'baseline' score (the average score on the Official GMAT hovers around 540-550 most years). That having been said, raising a 560 to a 700+ will likely take at least another 2-3 months of consistent, guided study - and you'll have to make significant improvements to how you handle every aspect of the Verbal section.

Based on the information that you've provided so far, I have a few follow-up questions:

1) Did you recently take a practice CAT or the Official GMAT?
2) What are the exact application deadlines for the Schools that you plan to apply to?

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