Hi, looking for a study buddy in Mumbai. Planning to give GMAT in the first week of Sept. Currently at the 600 range.

II’d want to suggest something - if there is someone who is looking to get better at RCs - Id suggest them to do advanced official RC passages. They are amazing and you’d get great learnings from that.

For passages you didn’t understand or get right - try to spend a lot of time even 1 hr to understand every nerve of that passage

You’d realize that answering the question would become so easy

You’ll breeze through the questions like tick tick tick...

Writing it here - because I wish someone wrote when I was looking for guidance on getting better at RCs. I hope someone gains out of my insights.

Also for these difficult passages try to look answers on GMATClub because that way the voids in your learnings would get filled. Sometimes we don’t know what is the meaning of a particular sentence structure and once you see the explanations of those parts on other forums you’d not be able to extract essence or juice out of them.

Thanks kittle .. actually I am lacking in rc part .....so I was hoping for some ..u know ... suggestions

Any suggestion for SC ?

One more thing to take out max juice from the passage - when you read it, read it out loud. Question everything you read line by line, and ask assume you have to explain some invisible creature in the space. Eg: I read a very boring passage on Biologists (apologies to the Biologists in the group :P) few hours ago--> I was reading and explaining line by line to that imaginary person, and was going like "oh did you get what this passage is trying to say? "This is what it means, this line is BS totally, these are just extra words unnecessary placed to make this para complex, etc. The passage is just trying to talk about these xyz folks who do something different from what is expected from them". In essence I summarized everything to this imaginary person. Just try to act as if you are a GMAT 800/800 tutor and you have this imaginary friend and to him you have to explain him something. I am also trying to fake curiosity when reading these boring passages. Trust me that is a great way to gain more out of them. Honestly I was trying to write down earlier but that was not quite well working fine for me given most time I either used to write too much or faced a dilemma about what to write. And lastly if the passage is long and has more paragraphs, then tell your imaginary friend that "you know what, not just this our great author has also provided us with more info on these creatures", let me read it for the both of us and maybe who knows we might actually start liking these biologists. I am sure this must be sounding really crazy but no harm in trying and see if it works for you.

True that kittle ... thanks a lot

1. Get your grammar basics sorted
2. Make a list of errors that you should need to check
3. Whenever you read any sentence, find if there are errors pertaining to that
4. After a while, you’d start realizing some errors intuitively, and there would be some you wont
5. For eg: I had a weak ability to spot pronoun errors. So to drill down, I now just look for pronoun errors and not focus on other because they have very intuitive now.

You can chose the egmat program for this. They are good to set your basics strong.

how should I start with SC like should I go topic wise or look at sentence correction as a whole.

Go topicwise.

Once decent level

Then go all in.

After a while you’d start noticing a pattern in your mistakes. Ie you’d start noticing that you miss only A PARTICULAR type of error/ For me it is pronouns.
