I would say congrats. You are good at those two tough parts of verbal - the CR and the RC
Senetence correction: This section can be improved faster than RC and CR.
Read - Read from MGMAT guide and watch RON's videos - that's enough!
strategy for SC: 1. Do ALL the official questions out there.
2. Do set of questions always.
3. Use timer.
4. First get the meaning of sentence. If you found out some issues, then eliminate choices based on those issues.
5. Now glance over the choices to see the differences in them. If the word/set of words are being shifted from place to another among the choices then understand that you need to find out the modifier issue. similarly, verbs used and other such issues can be pick up points for elimination.
6. When you see a rule/assumption/favourite-gmat-word/idiom implemented in a question then also be ready for a question that disguise it. It happens because of meaning. This is the real learning. If you can catch such things while going through ton of official practice questions, then you're all set to hit the high score in quant.
7. Revise before you practice. revise everyday. and you would see how awesomely you improve. without it all the effort is going to go in vain. prepare a revision doc and keep it on cloud so that you have access to it all the time. Regularly update it with question, explanations and where did you go wrong ad what was your learning. and just revise the same.
8. Consistency - do practice every single day.
Study everyday, revise everyday, have a strategy and stick to official questions - You will come with flying colors from the exam!
Thanks HKD1710 so much! My ESR say that I got 35 and 34 in CR and RC, respectively. Is it true that it is partly because My SC is too low so that is the maximum level of CR and RC in my test?. So if I can improve my SC to 40, for example, I can have a chance to answer much harder question in CR and SC and get a better score overall (if I answer them correctly)?

well, there is a set of hard no of questions in test. algorithm does not give us the questions in ascending order of difficulty. so tough questions are limited only. when you mark a hard question wrong then penalty is low but for easy and difficult question it is high. when we mark an easy or medium level question wrong then we don't get a hard question in general (i mean that's logical). but test may give you hard question in the very start too. Someone, who in the very start of the test gets easy and medium question, does not do well then high level questions will not be provided. look at the bar graph in the ESR, you will see the right picture. so yes, if you do not mark the easy and medium question wrong and do well in the start and also in the end of exam too then score would not be so low. so just start well, and then balance and balance the accuracy till the end of the test.
Guess: When you think you're behind the time, just do an educated guess when you know previous couple of questions were correct and this current question cannot be solved within time.
i think if you practice SC well, then your vebral score will be high. practice CR and RC much more.
One question: regarding strategy 2, a set of questions refers to 10-15 SC question at a time or 36 verbal question set that includes CR & RC? If it means a verbal question set, how do you usually create a set of verbal questions for practice? Besides GMAT PP, what I have been doing is create a question set from OG/OV online question bank. One problem I have with the question bank is that RC question can only be created based on the number of questions instead of the number of articles.

Here is what you can do: 1. Go to this URL - https://gmatclub.com/forum/search.php?view=search_tags 2. You can choose - source, diffirculty, section and search. 3. You can do questions one by one or just click on 5-10 questions. 4. Add every question to pdf. 5. do them with timer.
I would suggest practice lot of questions topic wise. Just reading the material does not help because you generally struggle to apply concepts in hard questions. Follow the below order:
