Hi Friends,
I have enrolled in the test series of Manhattan GMAT. One consistent feature in my SC solving is that most of the 700-800 level questions get wrong, although the lower ones go smooth.

Can u guyz help me to clarify as to what to practice to improve the difficult ones.
I have my GMAT next week.

Hi,
well since you have your test next week , I won't advice you to study/ memorize any new material because even though you might learn something new you may not be able to apply it under timed conditions in such a short time.
If you analyse your Mgmt mocks I am sure there will be a pattern to the questions you get wrong, they could be from the same topic/s or your making the same mistake in that you are unable to recognize subtle changes in meaning or modifier placement, etc.
Please try to find that and work on those questions ie reviewing the concepts again if need be and finding out why did you find the incorrect answers appealing, what logic are you missing etc.
Most commonly tested topics in SC are meaning, parallelism , S-V agreement,and modifiers. This week should be dedicated to a over all review and only official problems. All the best.

"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."
