I have been preparing for more than a month, but I seem to make same number of mistakes in all the topics.
Quant has improved from 5 mistakes of 20 to 3 of 20 during practice.
I have consistently scored around 47-49 in two GMATPrep tests with 10 to 13 mistakes.
I am having trouble improving verbal.
Here's the breakdown of mistakes on an average.
SC 6 of 15
CR 5 of 13
RC 7 of 13
During practice session I usually do around 41 questions from various sections.
I am spend considerable amount of time reviewing both correct and wrong answers, as most experts suggest.
In case of CR, most of the time I am able to narrow the choice down to 2 but unable to narrow it down further within 2 mins.
During the review I can clearly see what mistake I made, given enough time I would have avoid the mistake.
In case of SC half of the mistakes are in sentences with multiple errors, I am able to spot one error, but I am missing others.
The most trouble I have is in RC, I am trying to do everything that is suggested in this forum. I am reading "The Eco", "Sciam" etc everyday.
I take roughly 3-4 min for reading a average size (45 line) passage (I am taking notes while reading), and try to ans each question in roughly 1 min. Most of the time I feel that I can comprehend the content, general structure etc., but when answering the question I am getting half the questions wrong.
I even tried slowing down while answering but couldn't improve the score.
With 20 more days to go, I would like to get your advice on how can I reduce the number of mistakes.
