I am not being able to divide the time between quant and verbal for GRE. I have the official guide of ETS . Help me with the time I should devote to each section in order to score more than 320.

Hi Snigdha, before deciding upon a schedule, one needs to know what parts to focus on verbal and quant sections. if you know your weaknesses then you ought to spend time on that. Once you do a couple of practice tests, you would know which sections to focus on in verbal as well as quant. A handy tip though: rather than spending entire day on only verbal or quant section, try interspersing practice from each section. Alternating between verbal and quant will make the practice less boring. In oreder to excel in verbal section, daily reading is a must, be it scientific journal, blogs or from other sources. Another daily practice is the vocabulary. Using flash cards, underling tough words from daily reading and looking them up later as well as practicing with your friends (asking the meaning of words) are good practices. However, in order to get to your target scores, working with a mentor/coach can give you that extra edge. Best of luck for your practice and wishing you get good scores.
