I think it's more about picking up the nuances and going with a flow than anything else. The key thing here is, if you choose your own method, that's fine. But you need to know the pros and cons and ins and outs of every question type. So I'd still suggest that you stick with one method - like Powerscore or Veritas Prep's CR and MGMAT SC and just go with that. It might be hard at the beginning but just consciously apply the method to each problem you do. Maintain an error log and see where you're going wrong.

I've posted a CR study guide of sorts (link in my signature). You can use that to have a check list of stuff that can be right or wrong for a given question type. Do the questions on the forum, keep an OG tracker and you can definitely improve your verbal. Don't lose hope.

you need a bit of a bump for verbal - error logs are nice and so are club tests here!
