Possible Improvement in score in last two weeks of Prep [#permalink] New post 22 Jul 2012, 13:34
I am in the last lap of my GMAT Prep.
I am yet to score 720 Plus in any of the Prep test :-(
Though i will be more than happy i get this in the real exam but i have seen the opposite trends :-(

Maximum score in Quant till now: 49
Maximum score in Verbal till now: 41

(Not in the same CAT)

Considering my Engg. background, I aspire to be in the range of 50-51 and will be the happiest t person on earth if i can repeat V41 in my real exam ;-)
Tough Stats and Probability problems are the main obstruction in my Q50 :-(

SC is my Achilles Heel in Verbal. My observation is that if an SC Q is testing only one or two grammatical concept i am good with it.
But as soon as logical comparison, Parallelism, and Meaning Clarity join together to make my life tough, I find myself at loss :-(
I panic and usually do not have clue about the possible approach to this kind of SC problem :-(

Can i overcome this? If yes, what is the right approach or technique to solve these Q's?

What are the other areas i should look into to improve ot at least maintain the same score in real exam?

Do's and Dont's?
