Moved this thread to GMAT Verbal section...

Can you describe your GMAT study strategy to date? Have you been systematically identifying/addressing your weaknesses in verbal? What would you say are your weakest subjects in verbal right now?

It sounds like you need a solid study strategy that methodically addresses your problems in GMAT verbal. Take some time to study the resources available here:

I highly recommend that you study this thread as well, on using practice grids: https://www.beatthegmat.com/viewtopic.php?t=68

Hi Eric,

I also think the same but not able to zero down my weakness, However in Critical reasoning I do ok 60-70% but in sentence correction and RC, I am not sure may be the lack of concepts is the biggest problem for the inconsistent scores in RC and SC.

Thanks for the suggestion will try to zero down my weakness by using the grid and doing some more detailed analysis.

Can anybody also suggest me some good concept book on SC.

For sentence correction, get the Manhattan GMAT Sentence Correction Guide

Best of luck!

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
