Improve RC - 6 days to go

by c23678 » Sat Apr 27, 2013 6:43 pm
Hello..

I am taking GMAT(2nd attempt) next weekend and I am struggling with RC. I practiced a lot of RC questions and was confident till this day. Today I took GMATPrep exam 2 and scored 680.. with 34 in Verbal. I managed to get 23 correct out of 28 (SC and CR questions) and only 4 correct out of 13 questions in RC.. that affected my score a lot. Surprisingly I am doing reasonably better in RC with MGMAT practice tests, but when it comes to GMATPrep RC I am getting lot of them incorrect. Any suggestions on how to improve RC in the next 6 days? Any response much appreciated.

Thank you.

I wouldn't let the results of one practice test throw you off course. It sounds you were handling them before the test.

If you're interested, we created a series of free videos (at https://www.gmatprepnow.com/module/gmat- ... prehension) that cover all of the important strategies/tips for RC.

As mentioned in the RC videos, there is no one RC method that works for everyone So, I always encourage students to experiment until they find the strategy that works best for them.

For some quick tips, check out this thread by bblast: https://www.beatthegmat.com/ways-to-bbla ... 90808.html

Cheers,
Brent
