It seems to me that doing GMAT prep over and over again for the sake of reaching some time equilibrium per question is not a good strategy. As the above post mentioned, you get used to the questions over time. Therefore, this strategy will ultimately give you a fall sense of security.
Although strategies on time managment vary, I still believe that there is one factor that underlies all effective time management - that is, becoming conceptually familiar with as many question types as possible. However, be aware that simply scanning different questions is not the same thing as having a conceptual understanding of them - a lot of people miss this point. Nevertheless, RC and CR require a lot of practice. Some even suggest that RC and CR require an inherent skill. In either case, doing the same thing over and over again will not lead to any improvement. The hardest part of all this is learning about yourself - that is, what works for you. I found that by adopting parts of different strategies (that people have posted here) works best for me.
