Hi All,

I have recently taken up my GMAT and I scored a 650(Q50V27). During the preparation I had only focused on verbal, yet my scores are horrible.
I have been bad at verbal right from the beginning. During the Indian CAT for IIMs I got a percentile of 96 in which quants was 99.2 and verbal was 87 odd.
Guess I would have to do a lot of hard work for improving my scores in verbal. Need your advise on how can I start my studies on verbal to get a score of in the region of 42+.

Thanks !!

Hello shikhar,

This thread is specifically for questions for GMAC, the organization that produces the GMAT exam. For questions about how to improve your score or study strategy, I would recommend looking and posting in other threads.
