Hi Guyz
I am planning to give my 2nd attempt within the next 3 weeks. On an average my scores used to be Q48 V 31-32......(Need to cross the 700 barrier) I do realise that i have to cross the V 38 mark.
My major weakness is SC in verbal. Have been working on it for the past 2 weeks(OG 10-Manhattan SC) and managed to pull my score upto just V34(72%),in MGMAT
SC accuracy -33% (most of the Questions were in the 700-800 range). Avg difficulty correct 710 Average difficulty wrong 680
CR accuracy-79%
Avg difficulty right 680 Average difficulty wrong 680
RC accuracy-50%
I have heard that CR Bible is extremely good. I was wondering if it is worth spending 2 days reading the CR bible at this stage to target higher accuracy in CR.
In the meanwhile i am reading up almost all materials available under the sun to improve my SC.
I will also be solving all the SC & CR question i got wrong in OG11 and Verbal Review the last time around.
I need at least a week to spend on my quant as i have not touched it during my 2nd stint with GMAT.
Can somebody plz suggest an ideal course of action i should take.
Verbal Strategy 3 weeks...CR Bible worth it?..Please advise!

A lot of people like it a lot, but I didn't find it all that useful. Lots of info, but I think it makes things too complicated. I was getting 70-80% of CR questions right in OG before I got the CR Bible, and actually did worse on OG questions after reading the CR Bible. Just my two cents, though.

Hey Thanks people...
So i guess i'll follow your advise and not do the CR Bible at this stage. Maybe just refer to it in case i spot any weak area.
@Logitech: That link was really good and made sense. Pretty much reflectd what i've been doing. So now i'm gonna dump all those SC notes i collected from this forum and just get to practicing....MGMAT Tests, OG 11 & Verbal Review mistakes review , and my strength....Quant (which i have'nt paid any heed to during my 2nd stint)
Hope that helps me hit the 700 mark.
