Hi thangvietnam,
With a V23, you're missing LOTS of points in ALL 3 Verbal categories (SC, RC and CR). The fact that you scored in the 57th percentile in CR is decent, but it doesn't compare real well with how you scored in RC, so some of those CR points might have been due to 'good guessing' when you took the GMAT. That isn't an approach that you can rely on the next time you take the Test, so you'll have to get in some CR practice along with your SC and RC practice.
Your overall pacing in the Verbal section is actually quite GOOD; the average amount of time that you're spending on SC, RC and CR is right about what it should be. Now we have to improve the way that you handle the overall Verbal section, which will require some new tactics and practice.
When are you planning to retake the GMAT?
GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,

thank you expert,
I am non native and I am strong on quan so I need V30 to get over 620 to get admitted. Pls, note this.
my CR is good because I practice prethinking well.
My RC is terrible because I am hurry. though I can read the 3rd passage, and understand structures of passages, (this is success for non native who can not read even to understand the structure of passages), I think I get most of questions on RC wrong.
for SC I do too fast (for non native), and do not focus on meaning
I took gmat many times before and never get Verbal more than 20, so, this score on verbal is an improvement for me
I highly appreciate enhanced score report, because it show me in which part of verbal section I am weakest.
on the gmatclub test onine, I get 18 correct out of 19 question for 50 minutes. none of question is old to me.
I can see many places to impove, SC and RC.
pls note that my purpose is V30.
can you give me more advice
