Reading Comprehension

Hi,

I have scheduled my date in Nov. I have not started with RC portion. My scores in MGMAT are 580, 550. My RCS are going pathetic. I am not able to do well in this protion. I need advise that what I need to touch in order to get efficency in RCS. I have princeton Review, RC99, MGMAT RCS, OGS.


Please suggest that what I need to touch first which can raise my accuracy from 1% to 80-90%. I did Princeton review for maths and english earlier and it has really helped me to understand basics. I am still confused that what I need to do for RCS. Do Princeton review will work First, or RC99, OGs, Kaplan, etc.

I have so much of material.

Pls advise.


Please also advise that what mathelogy I need to follow. A skimming of RCs or whole RCS understanding, Mapping. I want to work with one strategdy. Pls Gmat Guns what I need to do. I am totally confused right mow.

Kaplan Premier is a good one...presently i am also reading it and have completed Princeton review in the past....

Thanks bblast for the strategies. I also watched Ron's videos and I learned quite a bit about inference questions.

u r welcome , yup Ron's videos and Gmat prep material are awesome free prep resources which most people often ignore.

If other strategies don't work, one thing that has helped a couple of my students (both non-native speakers of English) see 30%+ jumps in accuracy overnight (literally) was:

1) read the first and last sentence of each paragraph first
2) go back and read the whole passage
3) tackle questions

Some people advocate skimming for the answer; I personally think that is a recipe for getting a lot of wrong answers and for finding yourself skimming and re-skimming and re-reskimming the passage as you struggle to find the answer, where a solid initial reading would allow you to go directly to it.
