Hi Guys,
I am one of those unfortunate souls who are struggling with verbal preparation.
When i began my preparation, I was equally weak in all areas of verbal. So i targeted SC first and slowly i came to grips with it. I am not perfect there but i am able to recognize mistakes and eliminate wrong answers and improve my accuracy (see my progress below). When it comes to CR I am not sure what i am doing wrong. In the mgmat tests/grockit tests iam able to narrow it down to last 2 answers *always*, but most of the time i am selecting the wrong answer
Not sure where to go from here. I am thinking of buying CR bible and go through basic strategies one more time. And for practice thinking of using "The Official LSAT SuperPrep" .
And oh yeah ... my exam is on 27th Oct. Any ideas/suggestions???
--Ravi
Here is what i have to done so far:
--------------------------
1. OG Verbal review: CR questions
2. Reviewed stratagies from MGMAT Critical reasoning book
3. Took 3 actual GMAT tests. And my verbal scores are:
GMAT prep1: 27; CR 50% accuracy
MGMAT1: 28: CR 50% accuracy
MGMAT2: 33 CR: 50% accuracy
GROCKIT test1: 35: CR: 55% accuracy

Hi Sonuchandra,
Yes Grab a copy of Power score CR Bible . Go through it and brush up your weak CR fundamentals
Enroll e-gmat CR Course, not very expensive. It compliments power score book. It also helps you in tuning your though process in applying the concepts you have learned. It gives valuable 200 + Gmat like practice
Also Solve OG 12 problems next. Say do as many as possible in 2 hours. Mark your answers in an error log. See the answers you got wrong. Review their. solutions. The next day start with doing all problems you got wrong or felt hard in first hour .You already reviewed them the previous day, so get them all correct this time ) . Next two hours do as many as possible from OG again and mark your answers in an error log. Review your answers and re-do them the next day.
Thanks,
Hoogly

I forgot to mention, if you are done with OG 12 and need extra practice at an advanced level , download the free LSAT101 CR set from Aristotle prep. You can use the forum to find their explanations.
