Can you tell me your percentage correct in the three verbal categories as well as your own perceptions of how you do in those areas?

Hello,
Yesterday i gave the 1st out of the 6 Manhattan tests. I scored a 640(34V,44Q). This was my first full length test of any kind related to GMAT. I am really scared now because my exam date is just 25 days away and I want a minimum score of 720-730. Please tell me what can i do to improve!!!

Thanks! Okay, they are all pretty even. In this case I would strongly focus on in Sentence Correction; it is the easiest of the three to improve. Have you deeply studied all of the grammar rules? Do you use a splitting technique with the answer choices? Do you aggressively look for grammar errors and eliminate from there?

For Reading Comp, are you taking notes as you read? How are you working through the answer choices?
