15 days is quite less time to prepare for GRE. Well, it totally depends on your current vocab level though. In 15 days all you can do is solve some mock tests. That will give a idea about where you stand. Then you can polish those areas in which you are weak. Also you can go through Princeton's word list which is short but good. Also have a look at the tests in majortests.com. They are good.
I came across this link, might be useful for you. allaboutgre.org/gre-success-story

Also, Can you suggest me , when I took GRE before August 2011, I scored 860 only but when I compare the score with the revised ,I am getting 278 which is very less .I am going to give it another time but before that, Can you suggest me is there any mock test I can try before actually start reading for the exam.

All the gre preparation books will provide you some mock tests in their cds. try anyone of them. Kaplans mock tests are quite good.

It helped me to practice more. I took tests from kaplan. I also found this free online gre test from Oak's academy to be useful.

Thank you guys. I have a plan for 6 week to study for verbal and math? If you also suggest, how to improve speed on math , it will be useful.

Thanks

One of the best things that you can do for the math is to practice without a calculator. Learn how to use prime factors to do (avoid) long division and multiplication.
