Average time to complete RC passage

selango wrote:Hi all,

I have doubt regarding RC passage questions.What is the average time we can take to complete one RC passage(ie reading passage and answering 4-5 questions).

As per now I am taking 6-7 minutes to complete it.Is it average or am taking more time?

One strategy is as follows
2-3m average to read an RC passage,
1m average for general RC questions,
1.5m to 2m for specific RC questions

That said, I noticed that you said 4 or 5 questions. If you're doing the questions from the OG don't do more than 4 questions at a time because it will not be representative of the GMAT. Doing a 5th or 6th question gives you an added advantage that you won't have on the real test because you will have already gone through the passage thoroughly after doing the first four questions.

Please let me know if below s the average time for verbal sections,

RC passage - 8-9 mins

SC-1-1.5 mins

CR-1-1.5 mins

My problem is I answer quickly the RC passage thinking time will run out.

I'm not sure you're giving CR enough time. While you don't want to rush on RC you're going to need to them a bit faster.
