Hi,
I am weak in verbal and have decided to take up each section one by one. For past 3-4 days i am working on RC and improving on it. Following is study plan i have prepared

Dec 19: Keep working on RC concepts and simultaneously evaluate performance on OG12
Dec 20: Start with SC : Learn concepts
Dec 21: Keep working on SC concepts and simultaneously evaluate performance on OG12 + Do 2 RC passages daily from OG12 (left from where i left on Dec 19)
Dec 22/23/24 - Same schedule as on Dec 21

I am keeping it short and simple, that why CR is not included at present. I want to have immediate and realistic goals and finish SC before Christmas.

ANY SUGGESTIONS would be appreciated

P.S. After i finish with all 3 sections, i plan to take up OG Verbal. This is a note for myself in case i forget which book to choose later :)

This is a terrible plan, putting the same amount of time and energy into SC or CR will net you a much higher score than RC. If you want to improve on verbal, cut out RC and concentrate on SC or CR.

LOL, on second thoughts, you probably should put some time in to Reading Comprehension.

yeah i realized it this morning, my starting date for SC. I began with SC but felt that RC is pulling me back and asking to practice some more questions. I then realized that if i continue with my earlier plan i.e. start with SC and continue doing rest of RC passages alongside then i would not be able to focus on either of two. So i stopped doing SC and decided to continue with RC till i finish OG12, i am on q50 write now... so probably 2-3 days to finish OG12 RC.

How does it sound . . .
