GMATPrep 700

by hoji » Sun Sep 04, 2011 12:46 am
i recently took GMATPrep and got 700 q50, v33 almost all SC questions i did are wrong they are 8, 5 CR and 1 RC wrong. i read MGMAT SC twice, did 1000 SC, OG 10,12. but i think they didn't help me
my hypothesis for my poor perfomance on Verbal: untill i finished quant, my morale wore thin, and i conclude this did its job, on the other end my RC was good, only 1 wrong
i got perplexed, please help me, any advice will be appreciated how can i improve my SC skills and how can i maintain my morale?

SC they say is the easiest to improve. I am in a similar boat as you as even my mistakes are all in SC. I see that you have gone through almost all good material. If you think it was your moral that let you down then work on stamina and lot lettin one section effect the other.

Also if self study isn't helping maybe its best to get some expert help. Although I have not tried it, I have heard good things about e-gmat.com (they are completely verbal focused). So look at those options.

You are doing great on quant so focus on your weaknesses. Go back to all the SC questions you have got wrong and try to figure out why and redo them (if you are not already doing that). This will help.

I hope you do improve!!
Please press "thanks" if you think my post has helped you.. Cheers!!

It is very important to review your gmat prep answers also check is there a pattern of SC and RC which you get wrong....

Pattern can be studied from last 2 to 3 mock exams...

If you find one 80% of your job is done just study it.
Don't look for the incorrect things that you have done rather look for remedies....
