Hey guys,

Hi Mattew,
A 570 is a solid 'baseline' score (the average score on the Official GMAT hovers around 540-550 most years). It sounds like you still have plenty of time left to study, so you shouldn't be too concerned just yet. You're actually remarkably close to your score goal right now, so you should continue to study as planned.
Have you had a chance to review this CAT yet? How many questions did you get wrong because of a silly/little mistake? THOSE mistakes are what you have to work to fix (thankfully, they should be the easiest things to fix).
GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,

Hey matisch
The SC section is the easiest verbal section to make improvements on. Once you understand how to think and approach this question type, there are only so many ways you can be tested. Here at GMAT Pill we developed the 10 core frameworks which detail the 10 ways to approach GMAT sentence corrections.
Here is a sample video detailing one of the core frameworks: https://www.gmatpill.com/gmat-practice-t ... stion/2184
For CR, we recommend a visual framework approach to help you understand the complex short passages and how each item relates to each other.
Here is a video that describes the approach: https://www.gmatpill.com/criticalreasoni ... Estate.mp4
To improve RC - you really need visual guidance. Don't read articles about how to improve reading. You improve by actually doing or watching someone else do.
That's why you might find these video walkthroughs helpful: https://www.gmatpill.com/practicequestio ... tions.html
