I am looking for advice to improve my RC score. I just took an MGMAT test and RC accuracy is concerning (4/12 .. ouch ).
Target score = 720 (I am confident in quant ... Q49+ kinda test taker. I have a study plan to improve to Q50 even on a bad day .. so quant is not an issue). But how do I improve my RC significantly so that I can score V39+?
Me: Non-native speaker (obviously) with US STEM UG background. Not a reader. Always been TLDR-fan.
I have about a month to prepare. Any RC success stories are greatly appreciated. I prefer to follow a methodology "by book" rather than falling into the decision paralysis. trap.
