Could you put your case in more objective way. That would make one and all understand what areas you need to improve on !!
e.g. reading capabilities, time issue in particular section etc !!

thanks sgjg,
dude my problem is not time.Coz i finished all questions in time.(ofcourse i made educated guess whenever i felt i did not understood Qs properly and its worthless to put more point).
I seem to understand RC as well but somehow make mistake in answering Question.
My accuracy in all section is close to 50%.
SC is 50-60% accurate at most.
IN CR section , i sometimes do not understand question at all.so in that case i make educated guess and move on.my SC has improved a bit since i started preparing for gmat.earlier it wud be less than 50% correct sometime but now at worst it is 50% correct.
All in all , i beleive i have an understanding issue in CR and RC.
I believe this is common problem with indian folks.
wat do u say ??

[color=#444444][color=darkred]thanks sgjg,
dude my problem is not time.Coz i finished all questions in time.(ofcourse i made educated guess whenever i felt i did not understood Qs properly and its worthless to put more point).
I seem to understand RC as well but somehow make mistake in answering Question.

SGJG: I would say, understanding the Q is the most important part of any strategy and crux of getting closest to the best answer. Not understanding might have reasons such as lack of vocab., mis/lack of -interpretation of imp. parts of Q. Sufficient understanding of Q is key in saving time on rest of the points of strategy and to build confidence.

My accuracy in all section is close to 50%.
SC is 50-60% accurate at most.
IN CR section , i sometimes do not understand question at all.so in that case i make educated guess and move on.my SC has improved a bit since i started preparing for gmat.earlier it wud be less than 50% correct sometime but now at worst it is 50% correct.
All in all , i beleive i have an understanding issue in CR and RC.

SGJG: According to Kaplan 2006 page 319, with the accuracy of ~50% the score would fall between 25-28. This ain't a good accuracy. My first comment addresses what probably you need to work on to get better accuracy.

I believe this is common problem with indian folks.

In my opinion CR is the home ground for most of indians. RC might be a lil bit issue (but all is need is a good strategies for various kinds of RC passsages)

hope this helps

I m sure u will come up with flying colors
