Depends on your background but I’d wager definitely possible. Get prepswift and take notes on the videos. Do the tickbox quizzes for quant and don’t go to the next section until you get minimum 85% correct. Foundation is key for quant. For verbal, do 30-40 min everyday on verbal mountain. Do all 34 days. This should boost your verbal just knowing what the word options even mean. RC is hardest to improve but overall just getting reps on passages will help you ID what each type of question is looking for as an answer. Lastly practice, practice, practice. I did this and got a 329. You got this!

Preface: took my GRE three times in the past 11 months. My first time I took I used it as a diagnostic exam, I was super unserious about studying and that portrayed it on the Exam Day as I had no strategy on the concepts. My second time I took the GRE I was semi-serious, and did GregMat, however, I didn’t complete the entirety of the study plan. I saw an increase in my quant by 6 points but decrease in verbal by 1point. Still remained in 140s range. Third attempt, I was consistent did Sherpa … However, was on tail end of finishing Sherpa when I took my exam for third time. I saw no improvement. However my verbal score steadily increased. Still in 140s for both sections.

Dm, scored in the 160s on both sections and now headed to m7. Was in a similar starting point as you.

I can certainly help you with this.
