Advice - Last step of my prep [#permalink] New post   08 Sep 2017, 16:47
Alright guys, I finally scored over 700 twice on MGMAT CAT! woohoo. I am crushing CR and RC but I am TERRIBLE at SC. Almost all my verbal questions I got wrong were from sentence correction (I haven't studied this yet). I also have trouble on DS combined inequality and absolute value problems.

My question:
-> best SC resource? Need to improve in this area a lot
-> any good resources for inequality / absolute value 700-800 problems in DS

I am shooting/dreaming of a 750 but would be happy with anything 720+

To get a much better understanding of where you stand, you should take a GMATPrep. Manhattan is good but not as accurate as GMATPrep.

For SC I would recommend egmat. I used their material and it helped me. Haven't used anything else so can't really comment.

You can read through reviews of different courses and take the trials offered. You can then decide what suits you the best. Good luck.

How is the egmat's verbal course?
I'm planning to buy it. My weakness is RC and CR.

Well, the good news is SC is the easiest to improve in a short period of time for many reasons.

There are only so many ways SC can be tested - so if you are able to identify the 10 most common ways of being tested and the variations within them - you can quickly spot what to look for and where not to waste your time. These are core frameworks that we apply to SC.

If you are looking for practice questions, you may find this SC online question bank useful:

I haven't used e-gmat RC. So can't comment on that. The CR material is decent. Not as good as the SC, but it does the job.
