Dear all,
When doing the verbal part, I am very often able to eliminate 3 options. I am often frustrated by the remaining 2 options. Almost 99% of questions I got wrong involved wrong selections from the annoying 2 options left. I developed a strategy which is not quite useful or I was just unlucky. MY strategy is that when, for example, only A and B are left, and I think A is the most possible answer, I selected B. But it often turns out that A is the correct answer. But when I think A is the most possible answer, and I choose A; then B is the answer.
Can anyone who can share with me what you will do when facing this situation?

I'm not sure I have any new advice for you. I think the best approach is to find even just 1 thing wrong with a sentence and then you can cross it out. Since you've done that already and narrowed your choices down to 2, the differences between the two choices is going to be very slight and difficult to detect. At this point, think about the more obscure rules of English grammar. If you've not used the MGMAT SC Guide, I suggest you read it once (or as many times as you can handle) and that really helps. It helped me a lot.
Strikingly I too have a low score 580 in GMAT.
