Hello, I am at the beginning of my GMAT prep process.
For the Verbal section, I feel the most confident about SC because I find it much more formulated/mathematical, however I cannot say the say for CR and RC. Is there any techniques/formulated strategies I can apply to these sections as well, or will these sections also start to feel more natural with more practice?
For RC, although timing generally is not an issue for me, I often find myself getting bored and losing concentration especially on long passages. This might because I generally don't read a lot.
For CR, I often find myself stuck between 2 answer choices that both look correct to me.
Many thanks in advance!

Have suggested Manhattan-Prep's 6th Edition for CR to students. For RC, working on a reading methodology that promotes absorption could be helpful as well. If you want to practice the reading side of things but don't want to burn Official GMAT RCs while doing so, consider checking out articles from The Economist. In case you're interested, there's a study buddy thread on gmatclub you can check out/sign up to as well.

Hi ksan.
To address RC boredom, you can pretend you're interested in the passage. This approach works better than you might expect. Also, you can take a genuine interest in the topic, seeing it as something you would not have read about otherwise. Alternatively, you can just decide that you can handle a four-paragraph passage and read it just to get it done. Whatever you do, don't let boredom come between you and your goals.
To better understand how to choose between the last two choices in a CR question, see this video.
