Need suggestion for Verbal section

In terms of strategies for dealing with RC and CR, what have you primarily used so far? I'm not familiar with what's in your Kaplan 800 book, but the other books you have won't teach you how to do RC and CR. Does the Kaplan 800 book have strategies for reading the arguments / passages, finding the important info, recognizing the type of question, and using the appropriate strategy based on the type of question? (Or any other book that you have been using?)

If not, you're going to need to find a source that actually teaches you how to do these! Ask around here and look at Eric's resources section to see what you think might work best for you.

If you have been using something that teaches you these strategies, come back and tell us, and tell us what has worked for you and what hasn't worked for you. You're not terrible at ALL of RC and CR - you're just struggling with parts of it. You need to know which parts because the way you improve is tied to the specific things with which you're struggling! (And you need to know so you can tell us and we can make suggestions )

You mention both accuracy level and pacing level, so the other thing you want to see is whether your accuracy is fine but your time is too high, vs your time is fine but your accuracy is low vs both accuracy and timing are problematic. Some of the things you have to do to get better are different depending upon whether the issue is accuracy or timing (or both).

So either figure out what source you want to use to teach you about RC and CR, or get the data on strengths and weaknesses based on your current source and let us know what that is!
