Hi Guys,
So I am taking the GMAT next Saturday and I just took the GMATPrep CAT 2. While I am satisfied with the preparation I have for Quants and Verbal, I am pretty sure IR is going to be the Achilles Heel for me on test day.
Reason being, 1. Time management issues and 2. Very weak in Multi Source Reasoning questions, if they have a lot of data.
To put things in context, here are my GMATPrep CAT Scores:
Exam 1 - 700 (Q49,V36) IR-6
Exam 2 - 730 (Q50,V40) IR-2
I haven't gone back and done a detailed analysis of where I went wrong but pretty sure I need to up my game in the IR section.
Any help, recommendations, advice would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi monishi15,
IR certainly can be a little intimidating for anyone not comfortable multi source reasoning questions. You can refer to the following 2 articles that may help you better prepare for the section.
https://magoosh.com/gmat/2016/tips-for- ... reasoning/
https://www.gmatclub.com/forum/veritas-prep-resource-links-no-longer-available-399979.html#/2016/0 ... reasoning/
Further, I would also encourage you to purchase Official GMAT practice Questions form mba.com for some great additional practice. They have some great questions with explanations on them and can certainly help you get comfortable different types of questions tested on GMAT.
Hope this helps. All the best!

My recommendations:
(1) Tackle IR after Verbal and Quant.
(2) Take the break before IR. Switch mindset to IR mode.
(3) If your goal is not perfect score, be prepared to skip 1 or 2 questions, which will give you time advantage. If some questions are really time-consuming, maybe you can skip them as well.
