What are some good strategies to improve on speed in the next two months in RC and CR section of GMAT. I have used Manhattan prep material for content on verbal, and am looking into egmat SC and powerscore bible CR currently.
I gave two practice tests GMAT prep (V28) and Manhattan prep (V29) with the Manhattan prep content's 3 weeks of preparation, and I constantly run out of time after solving the first 25ish questions. I feel my preparation seriously needs extreme practice now, more than content gathering.
My goal score for verbal (if reachable in my time limit) is V38-V41 in two months of preparation time with full time job. What are some great resources to practice for the same and what could be a good strategy.
When should I be able to guess on a question and move on for the next question, is another problem that I need some insight on. I am starting some practice on the official guide and verbal review questions soon, some added help on my confusion from you guys would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance, Asha

A word of caution, an improvement of 12 points with a full time job and assuming an average busy life is ambitious. I would suggest planning ahead and dedicating time where you do nothing else but practice. There are great experts who will hopefully provide valuable advice but being in a similar situation as yours, I can say pushing yourself is the main key. If the mock says 75 minutes, start at 5 minutes but no more and see if you can finish the test. That is advisable only if you've gone through all the concepts and are just left with boosting your speed.

Hi ashasimar , I think you are already using the right resources for your prep . Additionally , you can also try Ron's videos . With dedicated study for 2 months you can improve by around 10 points . -CR - Powerscore, e-GMAT -RC - Manhattan or Veritas reading strategy - RC is the most difficult section to improve.
- Stick only to GMAT Prep tests - there are 6 of them. Use other test prep company practice tests only for additional practice. -e-GMAT's Scholaranium - a decent tool for additional practice.
