Hello,

I took the GMAT Prep last week (710). I took my first MGMAT yesterday scored 610 (47Q, 28V). I was rather disappointed. Decided to take the 2nd MGMAT today 690 (45Q, 38V).

I'm having a difficult time with the verbal section. I find the CR & RC questions much more difficult than the ones in GMAT Prep. In my GMAT Prep test I made only 1 mistake in CR and 1 mistake in RC the remaining 7 errors were due to SC issues.

I'm wondering is the MGMAT verbal section more difficult than the GMAT verbal? A related question would be is GMAT prep's verbal section easier than the GMAT's verbal?

I guess I need to concentrate on SC, I'm just not sure if I should concentrate on RC and CR as well....my goal is to get at least 700 preferably 710-720 range.

Thanks in advance.

For SC these are the materials you should be using :

1) Manhattan SC Guide (haven't read it myself but 9 out of 10 recommend it, or so it seems)

2) OG Guides any of them 10,11,12

3) 1000 SC (no explanations however so you should use this after but you will find almost 100% overlap with OG)

The above is enough IMO.

MGMAT CAT'S are harder than real GMAT (I'd say about 25% to 50%) for both sections IMO.
Impossible is nothing

Thanks...

I've gone through OG11 & MGMAT SC. I'll go through SC 1000 as well.

Thanks.

For practice on CR you might try working some Logical Reasoning problems from the LSAT. These problems tend to be more difficult and often provide good practice.
