Help!
I can't complete the verbal section in time. Usually I find myself in early 30's after 70 minutes and guess the remaining ones. I wonder whether this is a common thing happens to eveyyone? And how this will affect my verbal score? Can you advise me any strategy to cope with this problem? Thank you..

It sounds obvious, but the best way to avoid the surprise of little time left is to keep a close watch the time in each section. Another good way to avoid this problem is to develop a sense of when you are spending too long on a problem (this often happens with long reading passages).

Hi bro
recently when i took my practice test i felt i was really slow too, my problem is the SC cause i will sit and gaze at it forever...the only answer for that (of what i hear from the grapevine) is doing alot of SC and timing your self while you do it.
For the Reading Comps, someone who took the Manhattan GMAT course actually told me to perfect the art of Skimming (I know many may disagree with this technique-alot of LSAT people think i am mad) but if you chart out in diagrams a process of mapping key things (that always seem to be asked) then you will in time be good to go.
I usually map Assumptions, Tone, Objective [there may be others but usually those are detail specific]
At first i almost took 20 minutes per Read... but after awhile i didnt even need to do the diagrams, they were in my head. Now i automatically look for them. Yesterday i finished both my read sections in 10 minutes flat and got em right.
This may not work for you but trust me trying it will do you no harm. Also it speeds up your reading ability [and i know cause i read really slowly, struggled on the SAT with it also]
Tell me how it goes, and if anyone feels i may be wrong about something do post it, so i can hone my technique too
Cheers
