GMAT Strategy

Hello,

I took 2 times GMAT. At first time, I just studied OG and I got 480. my verbal was 12 but my quantitative was 41.
At second time, I studied all manhattan verbal books, and I took real GMAT and got 530, verbal was 19 but quantitative was 46. In this manner, I took mahattan 6 gmat exams and on average, I got 600, my verbal was around 27-30 and my math was around 46-49. but I did not do the essays.

My goal is 680. Now, I do not know what to do, I undrestand all material. I answered most of the OG correctly. I think my problem is in verbal section. For example, I can not answer the critical question in limited time. It takes 2.40 - 3.30 min per questions.
I do not know how I should study all materials of manhattan in order to get high score and how I can be better in verbal and manage my time. And also, How long does it take for me to prepare myself in order to get 680 score?

Thanks in advance.

I think that is the thing that most people miss. If you understand all of the material, then you need to focus on recognition. Odds are, once you recognize exactly what is being tested, you get the problem correct. Practice going through problems and not just answering it but take the time to explicitly note what the question is testing.

When are you taking the test?

Thank you. I think you are correct. I should study and exercise more and deeply. my speed for answering verbal section is slow, so I should exercise more.
Thank you very much.
