Hi All,
I went through the Kaplan material for SC strategies a month back and attempted those strategies on OG 11th edition. My accuracy was in the range of 60% to 65%.
Panic Round 1 set in.
Post that, I read the Manhattan SC Guide, a gem of a book. Attempted the OG 12th edition and OG Verbal Review. My accuracy is now in the range of 80% - 85%.
Panic Round 2 has set in!! My GMAT is scheduled for 11th May.
I have always gone back and checked the explanations for the questions that I made mistakes in and have revised the corresponding topics. What baffles me is that my mistakes are all over the place. My mistakes cannot be clustered to a topic.
I check my accuracies against sets of 20 questions. Is that the right way to do it?
How do I up my game from here on. Do I go through Manhattan again or do I get more practice? 1000SC perhaps? I have exhausted the OG material.
Please advise!!! Anybody!
Thanks,
maxpain - now in extreme pain

you have to use error log to see what type of SC your are getting wrong. If they are truly "everywhere" then make sure you understand the rule being tested. Many questions has more than 1 error/rule so check up on that too. Are you consistently getting 80%- 85% now?

Don't take this the wrong way but...
80%-85% accuracy on SC is pretty damn good.
This means for every 10 questions, you miss, at most, two.
Most people who struggle with SC have a strike rate of 30% or 40%.
You simply need to identify WHY you are getting the remaining 15%-20% incorrect and move on (as noted in the post above)
You could check the strategy thread (link in my sig). If you've read the MGMAT SC book, you likely know this strategy. Take a look and see if it helps.
You're doing great. Calm down.

Hi Max Pain. Welcome to GMAT Club.
You are doing very good, just make sure you time yourself when you practice.
Also, the best way to evaluate yourself is to take a GMAT Prep or a CAT test - much better indicator than batches of questions.
