Are you using any guidebooks? And what about the OG? The more information that you provide, the more we can help you.

Re: verbal problem [#permalink]
You have the right books for verbal, so put in as much effort as possible for those two books - especially Manhattan SC. In fact, I advise you to read Manhattan SC at least twice.

It's also important to fully review every OG verbal question - even the ones that you answer correctly. This reinforces the material, helps you to get into the GMAT's logic, and builds confidence. Also keep an error log, which is crucial for improved performance.

But I'm still not satisfied with my response. What else can you tell us about your studies? What do you find difficult? Are the Powerscore CR Bible and Manhattan SC guidebooks easy to understand, or do you struggle at times?

Re: verbal problem [#permalink]
It seems that haven't fully absorbed the material just yet. But that's okay; you still have time. Another plus is that you have so many OG questions. And don't forget that GMATClub's Verbal forums have lots of practice questions too. Other than rereading and fully reviewing OG questions, I usually recommend members to take an active role in the SC and CR forums and answer questions.

For now, though, focus on the concepts covered in the guidebooks. Try to supplement that with some GMAT Fiction in early stages of your preparation.
