Hi Stacey/Staff,
I want an opinion on the following:
1. Sentence correction - I am not sure how to tackle SC questions. I read the chapter and solve the specific problem. Ex I read Subject and Verb agreement Ch -3 and was able to solve the most of the questions in OG -12. Ch -4 parallelism was a disaster as most of the OG-12 practice uqestions, I cannot find any lists in most of them, am I missing something?? Is it that most of the OG-12 parctice questiion numbre from SC guide is testing idioms?? Please help me with a better approach on parralelism and on general SC approach.
2. I have scheduled my GMAT (Aug 26,2010) - I have been preparing for last 1 and half month and have finished all Mgmat guides except SC (ongoing).
--- I have not taken any tests yet, I plan to finish SC guide by 13th July and then plan to take test every week.
--- I practise 25 quant and 25 DS in 40 minutes alternate days and my accuracy is around 87-90% in both sections (I have finsihed DS from OG12 and finished 145 Qn in quant).
-- I practise 20 qn in CR in 30 minutes and RC 15 qn in 30 minutes every alternate day(CR + RC) and my accuracy is around 85 %.
-- I plan to start writing full length tests starting 15th of july - 23 August.
Is my plan good so far?? Should I give a test immediately now before I get a good grasp on SC(my weakest point). I am scared that if give a test and my score is too low because of SC, it will demoralize. However I am having hard time in SC and not sure what to do??
Please help!!!!
Thanks,
Dinesh
