Hey guys,
So I got a few new books in the mail:
Just got the following books in:
1. GMAT Critical Reasoning Bible
2. MGMAT SC
3. MGMAT RC
I also have OG12. I've taken the GMAT once last week and got a 520 (Q35 V26). The school I'm trying to get into requires around 575 so I need to do some major improvement in Verbal (although I am spending time on Math as well)
I've been reading around and it seems like everyone agrees that you should build your concepts up before doing lots of practice. So, would you guys agree that if I am having conceptual problems with the Verbal that I should read these books first before I do lot's of practice in the OG?
I plan on taking practice tests as much as I can (I have one more Princeton left, have 6 through MGMAT). Would this be counter-productive if I took these tests?
What are your thoughts?

For your practice CATs, I'd recommend spreading them out. This way you get used to the test over a long period, and you get periodic progress indicators.

I recommend practice above all else. Just doing problems over and over, feeling comfortable, feeling confident. I took a class and what helped about the class was that encouraged a lot of practice - I was a good student and did all my assigned homework! 
the approaches and lessons may have helped, maybe not - the key for me was practice. I really did not even "study" beyond just doing problems and taking tests.
