Hi guys
I was doing pretty well in SC but had to take a break for 10 days. after practicing a couple of questions i feel my skills have gone down.
Possible to get back on track after a quick revision or is it back to square one? Please help.

Hi Faith09.
You should get back into the zone pretty quickly.
That said, if your skills can weaken noticeably in 10 days, then it's likely that you'd be better off being clearer about the logic underlying the concepts you know and about how best to go about answering the questions so that you better retain your knowledge and skills.
For example, if you simply memorize rules such as that "everyone" is always a singular subject, you may forget the rules. On the other hand, if you understand the logic underlying a rule, such as why "everyone" is always a singular subject, then you should have no problem remembering the rules.

Hi Faith09,
While GMAT skills can certainly 'fade' with time - 10 days is a relatively short timeframe (meaning that some additional analysis of your situation is warranted). With your recent practice, can you point to any specific concepts or grammar rules that made you think "I just don't remember that any more?" In that same way, are you getting SCs wrong because you don't know the underlying rules OR that you do know them, but you did not spot when they applied?
When was the last time you took a FULL-LENGTH CAT/mock and how did you score (including your Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores)? What is your overall Goal Score?
