i took the gmat for the second time and my verbal score is 17 which is pretty bad. the first time i chose to cancel scores. can someone suggest some strategies on how i can improve my verbal scores? i bought almost all the kaplan books and i have the princeton + Official guide.

the ironic part is that i got 5.5 on the essay which i didnt invest a lot of time in.

Hey Sprite,

English is not my first language be I dramatically improved my Verbal performance using three resources. The Official Guide (in your case Verbal Review since you've already been through the OG), MGMAT Sent. Correction Guide, and GMATFix.com verbal flashcards. Break your study into specific topics, and for each topic do the following:

1) Go through MGMAT Guide to learn the concepts
2) Go through GMATFix.com verbal flashcards to refine these concepts. There are lots of cards and many are available for free.
3) Once you can go through the verbal flashcards pretty much without making a mistake move on to the OG Verbal Review questions for that topic (questions by topic breakdown can be found in the back of MGMAT Guide).

Most importantly review each solution thoroughly and go back over the GMATFix flashcards often to prevent memory leakage on the more difficult topic (each card has an attached lesson and how it applies to that card).

You can see a full report of what worked for me as well as what didn't work in another post, www.tinyurl.com/gmatpost

I hope you find some of this helpful.
