Veritas RC book finished new recommendation please!

I am glad that you found the Veritas Reading Comp useful!

Have you done the GMATPrep add on pack? That has 400-plus questions including many RC questions.

Not sure that will meet your demand for 5 passages a day for more than a few days!

Here is the problem with reading comprehension, it is tough to create a great passage, and have every question be tough AND fair. Most unofficial reading comp materials are unable to achieve the careful balance that is required. After all, 1 single word can make the difference between a question that is fair and one that is unfair.

With that said, have you thought of trying a few LSAT passages? They are not precisely GMAT, but they have been edited with great care so that you know that they are at least fair and very well done.

I Have never tried the LSAT passages before. I bought the Veritas prep books and took 3 tests and I am consistent on between 690-710. I scored 710 on gmatprep test aswell last week. But As my test is 20 days away, I don't want to loose the touch. Another question I wanted to ask is about STOP strategy. After reading the whole passage before going to the questions I write S T O P on my book and try to find out each element of stop. It takes about 30 seconds time more than usual but my accuracy has improved with this a lot. Should I continue with that or try something else to reduce the time taken or time will reduce with practise. At my current pace I have to guess about 3-4 questions in between to keep the time in control but still I am on V37 on all the tests. I have also bought the gmatprep software but they don't have much RC passages in that. I have finished them now.

Is there any particular LSAT book you recommend David.

Thanks for your help mate.

Appreciate it.

The Veritas Prep RC book is one of the best in their family of GMAT books, and a best source for RC passages outside of the 2 OG's. In my opinion, you really do not need more practice beyond what this book, the 2 OG's and the CAT's provide. If you are struggling with RC even after exhausting all the resources, then perhaps you need to work more on strategy. I would recommend the MGMAT RC guide, or Online videos for strategy.
