I agree with both of the folks above -- GMATPrep tests will definitely tell you much more than your raw percentages in the OG, for whatever it's worth. And MelP is completely correct here, too:

Quote:
Verbal skills take longer to build than quant.

There's absolutely no magic bullet with verbal, unfortunately. If it doesn't come naturally to you, then patience and time and hard work are going to be your best friends.
And this thread might help, too: https://gmatclub.com/forum/study-plan-f ... 98342.html

And we're here whenever you have specific questions. Don't give up, SMendiratta!
