Guide Please!!!

by bedazzled » Fri Jul 15, 2011 11:38 am
Hi Everyone

I have 20-30% accuracy in RC section. & I am planning to give GMAT after 2 months. Because of RC sections I suffer a lot on verbal. Yesterday, when I gave MGMAT mock and noticed that every question of RC was introduced when I was on 700-800 level :(. And I marked 10 outta 12 wrong. :/ My idea was to conquer RC in a week but that simply seem less time. I have read many blogs and forums to achieve some accuaracy in RC but same story again n again.

I can conquer RC section but I'm grappled with fear of losing in RC section. Beside I have read somewhere that this section consumes time. I wanted to know how many RC should I do everyday , what should I look in RCs, and How many weeks or days are required to master this section if I am not good in reading skills.

I'm referring to manhattan GMAT reading comprehension book right now to deduce my strategy.

yeah true reading helps, but I'm concerned ... i want to learn faster n better ... I m gvng exam in next two mnths nd don't want to mess up ... :/ beside, I am more concerned if I take CR n SC to 700 score nd at dat point of time I will receive a RC ... wat am I going to do :| I cannot solve a easy RC ... leave 700 ones from the scenario ....

actually
1) I take like 20 mins to read one RC
2) It'll be hypothetical that I will understand it in one go :/ and if I understand the RC in first read then I will surely get confused in questions
3) my 70% doubts are from questions part.
4) I have two mnths to improve ....I knw I will improve and take my accuracy to 60% by taming myself ;) but I want to take it to 100%.
5) It'll be true if I say that people do conquer this part .... but my question is how ???
I mean there will be some people who would hv experienced what I m experiencing right now ... I just wanted to knw how????
6) I am willing to give my 100% for section ... just want to make sure that I m following the right approach. I should not waste my time as this is no time for experimenting (As I hv only 2 mnths only).
