Improving verbal can be tricky -- particularly if your weakness is in reading comprehension. While reading is a lifelong skill, there are small things you can do to see a big improvement in a short period of time. One is to get into the habit of identifying and making sense of key transition words -- therefore, additionally, moreover, as a result, for example, etc....

Take a look at this reading passage walkthrough and see if it helps:

Hi everyone,

I am Aarti from Delhi. I have given my Gmat once in the month of April and have scored 590. However, I used to constantly score 660 or 670 in my mock tests : be it Manhattan, Kaplan or Gmat official for that matter.

Well, I will not beat around the bush. From the day of my exam I could figure out my weakness, which is nothing but READING COMPREHENSION. Infact, I had a panic stroke during the exam that I ruined it entirely.

I wish to write my Gmat again by August end maximum. And for that I must improve my reading comprehension for that matter and them the logics and tricks ( which I have none ).

After considering all the options available out there, I have shortlisted POWERSCORE LSAT RC book, EGMAT online course or TOP ONE PERCENT ONLINE course.

Not to forget my split was V23 and Q49 ( I could have scored 50, if I had not missed the last two questions).

I need to build up my score in Verbal. I am not an avid reader. I have apparently hated history throughout my life.
I need serious recommendations and suggestions that what can be worth investigating money and time, for improving my verbal score ofcourse within a span of 2 months.

I am looking forward to hearing from the experts and experienced members of the GNAT club.

Thanks & Regards,
Aarti Gupta :)

improving RC needs a lot of through reading of various texts from various sources.
in order of difficulty and the time taken to improve the order of the sections in ascending order is
1 sentence correction
2 critical reasoning
3 reading comprehension

I personally think that e-gmat is proably the best and the cheapest option available for improving your verbal scores
