Hi everyone,
Need some serious advise on the verbal part. Need to push my scores from early 30's to early 40's
Also, you can go to this link to see my performance on practice tests so far.

For the Verbal part,
I. When i am practicing SC offline (timed) i tend to get approximately 80 percent of SC correct. However, on verbal tests, i tend to get easy SC questions right, however, my hit rate drops considerably in 600 - 700 level questions. and when i go back to some of these questions i feel i could have got the question right, but then its too late.
I've gone through Manhattan SC bible, I've done Kaplan 800, I have made notes, i have noted down errors i tend to make in SC. I have practiced a lot. I can't pin point to one particular area that is my weakness, Perhaps all i can do is continue to practice and eventually get better.
2. For RC, i am pretty good at RC, for MGMAT tests, i ended up rushing through the last RC and thats why i got those RC's wrong. But i am still comfortable with RC questions.
3. For CR, I initially went through Manhattan CR book, had a hit rate of 85 percent on OG10 CR questions. However, MGMAT's CR stumped me, i realized that perhaps there is some gap in my logical reasoning, and i have started reviewing Power Score CR bible, having gone through the initial chapters i do realize that i was committing some logical errors and perhaps i can get better at them. After completing PR CR bible i plan to do questions in OG12.
Another problem is that on most of the SC and CR questions, i am never sure if my answer is 100 percent right or not.
