prasant, first of all, congrats man. killer score.

but i'm curious... in your first post on this thread, you said that the one of the most helpful things in your verbal studies was the discovery of the "2/3 split". what exactly is that? thanks

You may already be aware of it. It is the way the GMAT presents the options for SC. There are 2 options which are very similar and the other 3 are similar to each other. However, the set of 2 and the set of 3 are quite different from each other. You first choose which set is correct and then pick within the set. This made me a lot more accurate in SC.

Hi Prasant,

Congratulations on your great score!
Did you download the 'retired tests' from the wiki area? Which ones are they?

Thanks
