New to the forums.
I've been preparing off and on for the better part of a year and a half. Started with the Nova Press GMAT Prep Course book, then hit the PR book, then finally the OG.
With the OG, I scored badly on their diagnostic. Over the next several months after that, I did all the questions, section by section, starting with weakest question types, checked my answers, then re-did the questions I answered incorrectly until I either got them all right or narrowed myself down to 2 or 3 (for the RC's, I re-read each passage then re-did the questions I originally answered incorrectly).
My 3 biggest weak spots are (still):
-Critical Reasoning
-Data Sufficiency (in most cases, I ended up confusing "can this question be answered?" with "what's the answer?")
-AWA (for some deranged, reason, my mind draws a complete BLANK).
I just purchased the Kaplan Comprehensive and Arco books; I've heard the Arco book is great fodder for improving one's AWA, but then found their advice to be similar to other book brands.
I was deciding between Veritas Prep and Manhattan GMAT to help prepare. Then I stumbled upon these forums, which made me consider GMAX Online, and therefore consider spending $1500 on something more practical.
I'll decide on GMAX over the next few days (the video clips and price tag have been helpful in my decision-making).
I intend to take the test in late March/early April, so obviously I need to turn it up a few notches.
Help.

I found the The Official LSAT Superprep book useful for CR, it has some good tips on how to approach the questions (unlike the OG 
) and has lots of practice content too. The questions are pretty advanced, so YMMV depending on how well you are currently doing.
I would probably avoid the prep course, if you have been studying for a year I would guess you already know alot of the content they will teach in the course. Maybe 1 to 1 coaching on your weak areas might be more appropriate?
For the data sufficiency pratice is probably the key, if you do enough questions (and make sure you understand the explanations!) you will start to see repeated patterns and get used to the format.

If I could afford a private tutor, I'd consider it. I'll definitely look into the LSAT book, thanks.
