Hi,

If i am targetting a scaled score of 40 in Verbal then what should be my accuracy while doing the ques from SC1000 doc.
if i do 50 ques daily in serial order from sc 1000 doc then how many ques i should hit correct?

I have solved 240 questions from sc 1000 so far

day1 - 50 ques (1-50) right 34 (68%); wrong 16
day2 - 50 ques (51-100) right 33 (66%); wrong 17
day3 - 50 ques (101-150) right 36 (72%); wrong 14
day4 - 40 ques (151-190) right 31 (77.5%); wrong 9
day 5 - 50 ques (191 - 240) right 36 (72%); wrong 14

There were few OG ques also in SC 1000. My average time each day per ques is around 2 min's. i solve the 25 ques at a time then take 5 min's break to solve next 25 ques. i have also solved SC from ) OG12.

You seem to be doing good. Further, you must try to hit at least 80% consistently to achieve scaled score of 40.
