Hi zmender,

Whatever resources you use, remember that studying is a cycle:

Build your foundation ---> Assess your progress ---> Attack your weaknesses ---> REPEAT!!!

  • 1. Build your foundation by learning methods (SC splits, CR finding the conclusion, RC note-taking, etc.) and theory (SC parallelism, CR assumption types, RC wrong answer traps). MGMAT SC and GmatPill RC Pill are examples of good resources for this.
  • 2. Assess your progress by taking a practice test - the OG13 diagnostic, online practice CATs, or even picking random problems from the OG Verbal Supplement are good ways to do this.
  • 3. Attack your weaknesses. Look at the problems you missed in step 2 and figure out what you are good and bad at. Find practice problems from OG13 that test those topics, and study them intensely. If you still have trouble, go back to step 1 and learn more theory about that particular topic.

Hope this helps!
