Need help with RC

by rockthegmat11 » Tue Feb 07, 2012 10:59 am
Hey guys,

My GMAT date is less than a month away. I have been scoring over 700 in both GMATPrep and other third party CATs. However, I have noticed a trend in all the Verbal sections - I am never comfortable with the timing. I have analyzed all the wrong answers and the time corresponding to each wrong answer, and I have realized that RC passages slow me down considerably. I have already finished practicing all the RC passages from the OG and the Verbal Review. Somehow, I never feel uncomfortable while practicing RC from the OG.

Any ideas on how to improve RC timing? If you are aware of any other additional resources for [b]good[/b] practice, please let me know. I have tried RC99 already, but the passages don't resemble actual GMAT passages at all!

Thanks!

Your at a 700+ so don't actually worry... But if you really want to get rid of the RC "issue" try using the OG#10 and 11. You can find them on amazon. Also there is a 1st edition to the verbal official guide; I am assuming you are using the 2nd edition which is the current one. Practice by default will make you faster... Good Luck!
