Hi,
I am following Manhattan and Aristotle SC Grail to cover basics of SC.
Can anybody suggest which material would be good for practising SC Questions
My friendly dimes : Once through with the basics :
1.Get a hold of
OG 12 / 13 any edition is just fine
2.Verbal review 2nd edition
3.Cover
MGMAT and do the topic wise questions listed from
Og = eg Parallelism - Parallelism problems from
OG / SV agreement - Sv probs from
OG4.The ones u are struggling to understand = Search in forums GMATCLUB / BTG /esp Ron purewal's posts, He is magical
5.Download Ron purewal's videos available @ gmatclub ( search with lunarpower his forum name ) / vimeo / youtube / manhattangmat site = they are awesome
6.Download Gmatprep docs ( from GMATCLUB under whiplash's name ) = all retired actual gmat SC questions consolidated in one place
Once through : Take timing into consideration
1.Do in blocks of 40 witha timer of 1.5 mins - mark the ones u get wrong & review in Forums ( best part, all questions have been answered by experts / forum whizs )
2.Redo the wrong ones after a break = whether this time u are able to recognize the pattern or not , since u have already reviewed those
3.Do in blocks of 40 = mixing 20 SC & 20 CR = this is to simulate actual test conditions, forcing you to think/ extract in time crunching situations
4. Exhaust all
OG / verbal review / Gmatprep docs
Word of caution : before attempting Gmatprep docs, exhaust Gprep software multiple times or else u are got to get repeats leading to score inflation.
