Hi foofighter,
As they say "where there's a will,there's a way". If you put the requisite amount of "smart" work and keep on improving yourself on the different areas,I don't see any reason why you shouldn't be able to improve.
Since as you said that you have plenty of time to prepare, I'd suggest that firstly read as much good text as possible. Read the article from different areas in The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times etc. The quality of articles in these newspapers is quite good and it'd help in making you familiar with complex sentence construction .As a result, you'll be able to tackle RC and CR with more confidence. I think this should also help in SC. By the way, when you do you plan to take the GMAT?

Thanks rishiraj for your advice. I really appreciate the fact that you try to help out the members on this community with your insights.
I haven't decided when I'd take my GMAT because I plan to apply for Fall 2011 season. I'm confused whether I should work for 6-7 months or get done with the GMAT by Feb end. My main consideration is that I am not good enough in English. What do you suggest
By the way, the advice to read Wall Street Journal and New York Times is really helping me improve my understanding of the text.

Hi

Congrats on your score.

Can you please tell me where to get access to LSAT questions since I'm finding the CR questions in the OG very easy.

Thanks.

Congratulations on your great score!

Can you please guide me as to how should I go about handling RCs. I have tried skimming the passage but I am still getting only 50% of the answers correct. Should I try reading more different types of books?

Thanks

Sorry for replying late. Well,whether to read books or do dedicated yourself to doing focused RC practice depends on when do you plan to take the exam ? If you're not planning to take the exam in the next 3-4 ,then reading miscellaneous stuff would help. However, if you are constrained for time, you may want to practice as many passages as possible so that you're able to build stamina and are able to comprehend passages from diverse areas.

I am taking my GMAT end of Feb. What other material (apart from RC99) do you think I should read through to improve my overall reading skills?

Thanks

Sorry bob for replying late.I'd suggest that you go through the books listed in the GMAT Fiction forum .Here's the link to the forum
books-to-read-improve-verbal-score-and-enjoy-a-good-read-76079.html
Most of the books listed are really amazing books written in really incredible way.This will ensure that you are able to improve even when you're not studying for the GMAT. Apart from reading The Economist, Financial Times ,Scientific American will really be helpful. I,for one, am a great fan of the articles of The Economist.

I haven't taken a date yet but I'm thinking sometime in early April. By when do you think should I start taking full length tests?
