I am able to solve 60% of the Verbal Questions contained in OG-10/11 and Official Verbal Review Guide within avergae GMAT time. My correction rate has gone up to 80% but with some extra time. How much should i worry about my 60% correction rate that's within time? And with this rate in actual GMAT how much should i be able to score in verbal?

two things:
(1) DO NOT EVER GIVE YOURSELF EXTRA TIME.
this means NEVER.
if you build up a habit of using extra time, you WILL NOT be able to break that habit on the test. i guarantee this. you will crash and burn.
you must get used to solving the problems within the allotted time, so you must ALWAYS practice solving them within the allotted time.
(2) the problems in the og11 are organized by difficulty, at least roughly speaking. so i'd imagine that you're probably getting varying percentages of them right, depending on where you are.
are you getting 60% right at the beginning of the SC section, or in the middle, or at the end? also, what is your goal score, and how have you done on practice tests? it's impossible to give any advice without answers to those questions.
