Do GMAT Verbal Practice Untimed
To become better at playing the GMAT Verbal game, you have to develop skill in seeing what’s going on in Verbal questions, and untimed, careful, thorough analysis of questions is the most effective way to develop that skill. In fact, I always recommend that students complete their practice untimed in the earlier stages of their GMAT prep.
The problem with doing timed practice in the earlier stages of your Verbal prep is that two minutes per question is generally not enough time for a novice to fully analyze a question, understand what’s going on in the question, and arrive at the correct answer. So, what happens when people do timed practice is the following. Rather than learn how to analyze and correctly answer questions, they rush through questions, get many incorrect, and then either get the missed ones correct the second time around or learn from explanations what they needed to see and do in order to get them correct.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information.

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."
"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
