Hi all,
I've scored V40 on my GMAT CATs and scored a V39 on my actual GMAT recently. I have already gone through almost all of GMATNinja's videos and have a comfortable grasp of the concepts that he discusses. I feel that Verbal is my strength and I can boost my score beyond a V40 since I have reached here with limited study after my first cold attempt with a V35.
What self-study resources would you recommend to work towards a V45?
FWIW, my focus areas are SC and inferring para message in RC.
TIA!

Hi,
First of all V40 is a really good score. And an improvement to V45 is definitely possible if you focus on the right areas. Let me help you how to do that.
As you are struggling with SC and RC, let me give tell you the right methodology to solve those questions. To solve SC questions, it is really important to approach SC questions from a meaning stand-point. You will often come across answer choices which are grammatically correct and convey a logical meaning but are indeed incorrect. So, it is really important to understand the intended meaning of the original sentence, perform error-analysis and then eliminate choices which are grammatically incorrect and which do not convey the intended meaning.
Coming to RC, To solve RC questions, you have to read the passage with an open mind, leaving all the unnecessary baggage. GMAT gives you ample amount of information in the passage. It does not test your knowledge on topics such as physics, political science. No matter what the topic, the reading strategy has to be the same. You need to read the passage in an inferential manner so that you can draw the right inferences and understand the intention behind writing the passage. There is a process called “Involved and Evolved Reading” which helps you read a passage effectively. You can refer to the following video to understand the strategy of “Involved and Evolved Reading”.
Hope it helped! If you are looking for a resource to improve your Verbal score, then I would recommend you to check out the Verbal course of GMATWhiz. The concept boosters and the practice quizzes help you learn the right methodology to solve questions. You can understand the structure of the course by checking out the free trial.
