Thanks mohater!

I think you have asked a right question.

I am finding RC tough. Please find below the details description of Verbal scores in my last three mock tests
GMAT prep1: (640, V26) RC 7/11, SC 11/15, CR 8/12
Knewton Free test:(650, V33) RC 4/13, SC 11/14, CR 10/14
GMAT prep2:(720, V38) RC 12/14, SC 11/16, CR 8/11 ( Given in complete official conditions- both essays and proper breaks)

When I practiced RC from OG, Verbal an even from some of the LSAT sets, my accuracy was more than 90%. But I don't know why I am unable to concentrate on RC in mock tests. In GMAT prep 2 I was determined that I will complete RC with good accuracy even if I had to run short of time for rest of the questions. But luckily I could finish verbal part, 2 minutes before the allotted time without hurrying up. I did not spent more than approx 25-26 minutes on RC(4 passages) though.

Please let me know if any more information needed on the same.

Re: 20 days left for GMAT [#permalink]
Are you running into timing problems when doing the real test? Many people report no issue doing practice problems but not doing practice problems in a timed environment.

Your SC could also use some work are also a little wobbly, my guess is on the 600+ problems. LSAT problems are typically reserved for folks who need more advanced material.

Have you seen the timing thread?

Re: 20 days left for GMAT [#permalink]
I use Manhattan time strategy for RC, short passage(3 questions)- 6-7 minutes, long passage(4 questions) 8-9 minutes. In normal practice my accuracy is 90% on an average with this timing. I did not get your point on SC, do I need to improve more on this front. If yes what material I can use to proceed on?

Thanks for your help.
