Hi all,
I have a question on improving my verbal score. I seem to be at a plateau around 38, and I want to get it to the 41/42 range. I have been studying hard, and I know I'm learning new tricks, but for some reason I keep getting a 38 on my practice tests (both GMATprep and MGMAT). I got a 42 on a GMATclub verbal test, but I felt like that one was easier. I also got a 38 on my actual GMAT about 1 month ago.
I mostly get the 700+ SC/CR questions wrong, and I almost always narrow it down to two, and I often pick the wrong one! I usually get about 1 or 2 wrong on RC max.
I only have a week before my test, but I have the entire week to study so I'm open to suggestions! What's the best way to try and improve in this last week? Do some 700+ only questions and do a heavy review? Or review all my notes?
FYI i got a 48 on my math in my real test, but I feel like with a week to go, my best bet is to try and up my verbal score.

This is a tough question to answer.
The only advice I could give is: on upper level question try to stick the meaning of the sentence and use grammar as a tool In conjuction.
This is the only way to unlock those sentences.
Similar reasoning in Cr and RC.
A really understanding of what's going on is the key.
Read super carefully.
Ask if you need.

Carcass, thanks so much for the reply. Are there any good materials that help with improving your ability to discern meaning in SC? Some of the 700+ ones are tricky, since like 3 of the answers all sound decent. I heard good things about Powerscore for CR and was thinking of trying it.
