Hi Almap, Here was my blunt logic...it's was obvious from everyone I talked to that you can't just stumble your way to a great GMAT score. I'm amazed how many people try to go it alone. I'm just not that type. There just aren't any short cuts, and I'm not the type to have left something as important...

Hi Kayotoprotocol,
There's really no shortcut. I prepped. I didn't wing it. To beat RC I used tools such as the RC ladder, and +,-,= that made RC easier and ultimately beneficial to my GMAT score. My advice is to do the same so that you can approach every GMAT question with a system.
