Hi all,
Based on your experience, what is the average level of problems of IR on GMAT. I struggle to get the hard ones right but can manage the Easy and Medium ones (from the OG material + Extra pack purchased).
I am afraid that if IR comprises only of hard that it would be difficult. I also read that IR is not adaptive. How to cope with all difficult IR problems in a row.
Please help.
Thanks!

That's correct that IR is not adaptive. IR questions are generally difficult -- even more so because you have to go all parts of that question in order to get credit. However, the scoring is such that you can get a few questions wrong and still get a "perfect" score of 8/8. So when you are presented with lots of difficult IR problems in a row -- focus more on time management. If you are almost absolutely sure that you you will be guessing on all 2 or 3 parts of a question -- then just cut your loss in terms of timing and move onto the next.
Of course, during practice, you want to build your confidence to a point that that does not happen. But if that's what you are presented with during the exam -- then the important thing is to move on and don't let it affect your psychology for the remaining portions of the test.
