I have ordered digital subscriptions for Economist , Journal of american history and scientific american to practice reading and do good on reading comprehension , also for scientific american i subscribed to read past articles from 1993 but seems that i have to pay each past issue separate though current articles are available though i believe GMAT is unlikey to use current topics . I am not trying to cheat the system but get familiarity with variety of topics becuase sometimes for scientific and economic articles passages are so dense i dont seem to understand them , when i read them with my tutor , questions seemed easy to me I am talking about offical gmat prep 2.0 RCs , what type of articles should i read past topics though i acknowledge i dont have months to improve my reading.

Is your question, "what types of articles should you read?" As in which topics? Are you looking for the topics that are most likely to appear on the test? such as astronomy (a constant favorite) and women's and minority rights in the United States.

Is that the question? Or are you wondering what to read to improve your vocabulary or your ability to read dense paragraphs in English?

"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."
