OG Verbal Review 2nd Edition

[email protected] wrote:Hi gurus,

Can anyone comment on the CR problems in the OG Verbal Review 2nd Edition?
There are 83 sample problems in the CR section. I made only 4 or 5 mistakes when answering these.
Are these questions of the same level as the Real test questions? Hard for me to believe.

Hi,
I am not a guru.
I solved VR 2nd edition and OG12.
I felt VR is easier compared to OG12.
I took offcial Gmat. In official CR questions, two options looked very close. Your expertise will be tested on how well you can eliminate that close answer and pick the best answer out of 5 options.

You have very good accuracy in CR. But the question is whether you answered them all in stipulated time limit. If your answer is NO. Then, you should immediately start solving all questions only in time limits.
Thanks

Any input will be appreciated.

For you information: In my MGMAT free test a while ago, I scored 600(Q46, V28). So, I know that I have a long way to go in the verbal section.

Ur low verbal score could also be thanks to SC and RC !
Just saying..

Personally, I find the Verbal review very similar to the OG -- a general review that covers a lot of ground with official questions, but not a lot of high-end difficult questions.

Hi Jim,
What is the right source for high end questions then?



Gunjan

Ah, the fabled Source of 700+ questions.

I think most sources have some great questions, some of which are close to OG ones, some of which are not. Honestly there is no one prep source that I would recommend for high-end questions -- I recommend that people pick up sources with CAT tests and use those, which, if they are doing well, will move toward the tougher questions in that test prep source.

Others may have different suggestions.
