GRE Retake Strategy

[user4274]

Hi folks,

I took the GRE last week and got a 325 (V-160, Q-165). My target score is 330, I am planning to retake in the next 4 weeks. Need help with a retake strategy. To put things into context, here is my prep strategy for the first attempt-

1. Gregmat question bank/ timed questions for quant & verbal
2. Big book tests for verbal
3. OG tests, practice sections in verbal & quant OG
4. All 3 PPPs + Gregmat tests
5. My quant score in the PPPs ranged from 163-169, would ideally like to take it to 170 with a 1-2 point improvement in verbal

I want to practice more hard questions, pls help with a retake plan, someone suggested I do gmat questions but I dont want to go down that road.
