ETS Official Mock Q 166 V 153

Hi,
I took the ETS Official Mock Test 1 today. Scored Q166 and V153. This was a fresh attempt. I have not practiced either section in the past few weeks. Quant is a forte, got only 3 question wrong in the 2 sections due to silly mistakes, lack of concentration. Verbal was surprisingly high. I ad given V a half hearted try, gambled with a few guesses in RCs but gave a 100% in the Text completion questions. Plus, I was sitting in the living room, so there was that occasional disturbance, nothing major.
I am targeting a really high score. 333 which I am sure will have to come from Verbal.
I need guidance on the following 2 fronts:
1) What should I do to improve Verbal score by at least 10 points? I got almost as many mistakes in RC as in TC and SE.
2) Can/should I take the GRE in April 1st week? Will the time be enough to prepare for what is needed? How much time should I devote, for the same, weekly?
Please share your thoughts on any thing else you can I recommend as well.
Regards

Hi
Happy to give my hint to you Sir
The Quant side is pretty solid. However, I suggest you to take a look to our Quant book to score even better or at the very list to consolidate the score and be sure of it https://gre.myprepclub.com/forum/gre-math- ... -2609.html
On the verbal side, certainly, you do need a noticeable boost. Roughly ten points are not a joke. By April could be feasible but is very tough.
You would need a strong vocabulary which is a necessary evil unfortunately for the GRE Look at here https://gre.myprepclub.com/forum/gre-prep- ... 20466.html
For Tc and RC I did not write yet my guides
but my suggestion is to UNDERSTAND the meaning overall first.
For Rc , basically, the strategy you should follow is this at this link, read it please https://gre.myprepclub.com/forum/a-scienti ... tml#p62100
Ask for further assistance Sir

Thanks Carcass. The spreadsheets look amazing.
I wanted to know what scores do people generally get in the official mocks and how much improvement can one expect?
