Diagramming for RC is very helpful and with due practice , one can reduce the time consumed. I am currently following this approach and finding it to be beneficiary to me.
Diagramming in CR is not yet tried but yes, this method is recom in ebon101's debrief so , nothing wrong in trying the approach.
All the best for ur gmatprep.

MGMAT: Foundations of GMAT Math Review (Fourth edition)
As I'm currently going through the MGMAT Foundations of GMAT Math book, I just wanted to share some insights, which may be useful for all future test takers. By the way, I'll be sharing reviews of all books I complete during my GMAT journey, including fictions books. Stay tuned.
The MGMAT Founations of GMAT Math is about 320 pages from cover to cover. At first, this sounds quite spectacular, but the book is easy to read. It includes chapters, describing all basic mathematical concepts, drill sets and solutions. The book is written in a systematical manner, explains all strategies very well, although, I think in some places they are just repeating some things too much
(e.g. Nerd note). As I bought the book, I though that it might help me refresh some mathematical concepts, which I haven't seen since high school and college, but it turned out to be a bit different. Reading the book is total fun, doing the drill sets is just like a game and I do feel that I am further strengthening my Quant skills. As I said, I expected this book to include just the already familiar basics from school, but it explaines many strategies and shortcuts, which I think are very important for the actual GMAT and its components. Furthermore, it helped improve quick calculations for my case interview practice.
Later on, as I start the 5 Quant MGMAT Strategy Guides, I'll be able to asses the foundation this book has given me, but I am pretty sure that now, as I have completed this book, I'll have it much easier.
Pros:
+ includes all important mathematical concepts
+ easy to read
+ includes many drill sets, which help you improve knowledge and speed
Cons:
- drill sets help you improve your skills, but need some time
Approx. time to read: 8-9 days with 3-4 hours per day

But it works perfectly for me, since we do aim at mastering those patterns. Moreover, I strongly believe that if you re-check a particular type of discrepancy in a pattern constantly, you'll become faster and faster in spotting it on the real exam. Thus, it is not without a reason to take a look over questions that you find interesting from time to time. For this purpose are flashcards created, aren't they ?
