Here's a simple method to get your google adsense account verified as early as possible.

Don't apply for your adsense account without having a website or, blog. You should have a nice website or, an average blog to get verified easily.

What is Best A Blog or, A website!
I'll recommend you to start with a blogger account and create a simple blog. However, if you can manage to have a nice SEO optimized website that is indexed in google, you can also get verified without any problem but its not that simple.
I recommended the blogger because google bought the blogger about a few years ago and is still providing free services for bloggers.
After signing-up a blogger account, you have to post some articles about 8-10 article would do fine for you. Each article should be at-least 250-300 words long. Try to post unique content; this will help you also in google page ranking.
That it. Now you can apply for your google adsense account using the url of your blogger account and I assure you that your account will be verified within 4-5 days.
