RC

by sch » Thu Apr 29, 2010 6:15 pm
I am a week or two away from moving into my verbal section preparations. Out of three sections on the verbal I am the weakest in RC. I have MGMAT guides. What else can I buy/do to address my weakness in RC??? I am sceptical about Power Score RC for the LSAT. Mainly because they are LSAT prep company first and all the other products are their by-products (that overlap with what being tested on the LSAT). I would think that if LSAT and GMAT RC sections were similar they would have a separate guide for GMAT RC like they do with CR.

RC was an area of weakness for me as well. The book that really helped me turn the corner was the Veritas Prep RC guide. Try to see if you can find someone that will sell it to you. Its a great book. If you can't find the book individually though, and if you don't want to buy their book set, I guess you should just go with the Manhattan Guide. It didn't really help me though, maybe you will get more out of it.

Its good to be skeptical with some materials, but after going to through some of the LSAT reading quesstions, and seeing quite a few high scorers use the LSAT tests to improve their RC (check out I just beat the gmat forum) I think that skepticism probably isn't warranted.
