Hiya,
Hearty congratulations for your achievement, though am late in wishing , i just joined this portal few days ago.
I went through your posts, they are worth studying and getting inspired from. I will read them again.
However , got a query. You wrote you had to guess few questions at the end because of time shortage. Still you managed good score, is it that you did really well at the start . (1)Does that mean you need to give more time to questions at start, say first 10-15 questions?
Also, 9 questsions in quant and 11 questions in verbal are research questions. That means out of 37 in quant, 28 are real ones that count up to your score.
As we do not know which ones, so we need to give best shot to every question. However, if you do 90% well in exam, i guess that is best shot. Because most of the tougher last 10% may or may not be taken as exam question.
I also watched princeton review cd's where they said first questions if go right then toughness increases and if you do wrong attempts at last, still score will be high. Its relative to wrong questions first and doing right questions at the end.
Secondly,
I have just started with official guide first and pretty comfortable with quant. I need more practice once or twice and i will be fine with it.
Now , coming to reading comprehension and critical reasoning, they are my biggest weakness. (2) can you tell me how to proceed with them? Shall I first start reading how to solve those or shall i start official guide RC & CR ?
My timelines are very tight, just started one week ago. And am appearing in august first week. I am working professional so weekends are main dependencies of preparation and an hour on weekdays.
Thanks for your time. I built up the confidence after seeing your modesty n down to earth approach to help everyone out here.
Thanks.
. The program will fit my personal and professional needs much better. Surprisingly I havent applied yet.... This year that journey will start, and I will make sure I update this blog with the details of the same.
