Got 630 couple days ago, goal was 680-700
The last GMAT prep I wrote I received a 670 so I was hoping to score close to it. Now I want to go from 630 to 700. Im not sure what my game plan should be. My main mistake on the GMAT was that I wasted too much time on one RC passage which came up when I had 40 minutes left in the exam. Before that, I was doing great so I think if I had managed my time better I could have gotten 38V instead of 35V.
My plan is to spend a few hours reviewing my last CAT then write down the weaknesses and work on them. Might need to learn a few formulas for math but for english I think I just need to do practice problems and work on speed. The bad thing about verbal is that I have a hard time finding legitimate RC passages since I've done most of the official GMAT ones, Kaplan, Manhattan etc.
Any tips are appreciated.
Thanks

Hi gmat604,
Indeed, timing is a critical aspect of the test. While you might feel as if you have a lot of time in the beginning, you should be aware that it is important to move along as quickly as you can---but not too quick that you sacrifice accuracy and focus.
Optimize your pace during practice, and then just do what you normally would do on the actual test (in terms of timing).
With RC - it's all about speed reading. You can check out some video links in: https://www.gmatpill.com/practice-questi ... -guide-rc/ - or click on the links below in my signature.
