I can not understand the passages at all. all the passages are very difficult.
What I do now?
Hey duongthang,
I think you upped your difficulty level all at once.If you find that the passages are very difficult,maybe you can switch down to intermediate level difficulty.
Do you read newspapers regularly - Like editorials.
Also, whenever you come across a topic you are not familiar with ,don't skip it .
However hard it may be,read them because on the day of the GMAT ,most probably you will get atleast one unfamiliar topic.
So ,it is very important that you should not only focus on juicy news in the newpapers but also on varying range of topics.
Newspapers is the best source for plethora of topics as the magazines tend to be biased towards one or the other topic.
Also you have not mentioned in your post about your reading habits.
It takes time and effort to explain, so if my comment helped you please press Thanks button
Just because something is hard doesn't mean you shouldn't try,it means you should just try harder.
