ISB PGP - GEM GMAT scores

Hello folks!
Is there any GEM (Gen/Eng/Male) who got PGP admit with GMAT FE 655.

My profile - 9/9/9, Tier-1 university, 4 years work ex (operations). Thinking to apply for ISB PGP, but current gmat score is 655. Worth giving it a go or no chance?
P.S I am aware that the median score was 675 for 26-27 batch, but not sure of the dynamics.

GMAT FE - Verbal and DI Time Management

Hello guys,
I have my official attempt in 2 days. Needed some tips to enhance time management in Verbal and DI sections.

For Verbal:
- Currently I am able to attempt ~19-20 questions, but there’s this 4th RC passage towards the end that’s troubling me as I hardly have time remaining to read and attempt those questions genuinely.
- Is it a good idea to just increase my current pace of reading, I have a feeling that it shall harm my accuracy, which would be disastrous. I tried reading some RCs at a faster pace but then ended up taking more time to solve the questions as I needed to go back to the text more often.
- For all the guys who scored 85+ in Verbal, could you please share what worked for you to give this boost.

For DI:
- I’ve been suggested to focus firmly on the first 16-17 questions and try to maintain best possible accuracy. Thoughts on this? Is it true that the last 5 questions don’t play a tangible role in boosting one’s score.
- I have noticed a pattern here, majority of the last 5 questions are generally of easy/medium difficulty level.
- What was your biggest strategy fix for DI section which enabled you to score 84+ in this section.
