Just look for premise/counter premise and conclusion and then the question stem... even before looking at the answer choices...

look at each choice one by one... noting mentally or on paper.. whether this choice could be a probable choice or not.

you should be left with only 2 or 3 choices..

take a call...between these choices...

by this you will surely save on time... if you read all the choices...and don't take stalk of which one is / is not a possible answer... u spend more time...and ur judgement is also fuzzied...

practice hard, more on accuracy...and try not to repeat reading a choice...

try working in the mind... easier said than done though!

"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."
