Hi GMATSamurai,

I would work on creating a strategy for each Verbal question type. As you begin to feel more confident with your foundation in content, practice different strategies for each question type to see what works for you. Read articles online at Grockit's blog, here on Beat the GMAT, or other GMAT sites for suggestions. You may need to try several methods to see what works best for you - make sure you are using your scratch pad, especially for CR and RC. Write down your strategy for each question type as a numbered process. If you can't do this, chances are you don't have a strategy in place.

Use a tutor your weak areas if needed. Consider working with a tutor for a couple hours to hone your technique. Strategy is the most important step in your preparation because it dictates how you are actually taking the test, so if you are struggling with a certain area or question type, you're not alone! Reach out to an expert for supplemental help.

Don't worry about your pacing until you've reviewed the content and you have excellent strategies with high accuracy. If you try to move too quickly too soon you will likely never move beyond a limited accuracy. Once your strategies are good, try to set an "ideal" time for yourself and practice with different sets of questions.

Good luck!

Thank you vivian for your reply.

So currently, Even when I solve OG questions, it is ok not to focus too much on pacing? For me personally Easy and Medium Questions are not so much of a problem. Medium-level questions I do make errors once in a while, I use process of elimination and boil down to 2 options out of which one is correct and I choose the wrong one amongst the 2. Hard-level questions, it is sometimes about comprehension too.

Scratchpad technique wouldn't it slow me down? for CR? - But i guess it might not be a bad technique for hard-level questions. Do you know any particular recommendations or articles regarding this?

Personally, for me a particular question type is not the problem.

I try to break down number of questions I solve at a time, generally 5. On an average it is 3/5. For somebody who has a high score target, this might be bad right?

I am currently following the 60 day guide and I use the CR Bible along side.

Does any body know if there any good book with a huge set of question pool and explanations that I could use?
