Good SC strategy for better timing

I started my prep in Aug 2022 with a blind official mock test 540, and seeing such a low score, I was determined to improve. I am not a standardized test person or a reading person(not a native speaker), and I had been away from studying for 9 years, so I felt that I had to do a lot of prep work. Initially, I started with Magoosh Verbal - at the end of Aug 2022, and then I did the Manhattan Prep Verbal book in December 2022. At this point, I felt that I had gone through a lot of material, but it was all jumbled in my head. Not feeling confident enough in Verbal, I did not move on to Quant prep.
So in mid-Dec, I started with TTP and studied their comprehensive material for the next 5 months, which helped me become super clear and confident about all concepts and approaches.
I gave official mock 1 in May 2023 and although my accuracy in verbal was very high my timing sucked, and I ended up guessing the last 11 questions(which nearly all ended up being wrong) and got a 640, which was disheartening and I was running out for time for my first attempt planned date, and after analysis if found that my SC accuracy was very high, but the timing was horrible.
So on the next day, I took up E-Gmat to get my timing strategy right, I took their Sigma X mock 1 with a primary focus on not running out of time and got a 680, and based on their GMAT like ESR I saw that my SC ability was worst(36 percentile). I did E-gmat's master comprehension and SC section in 1 week and then took official mock 2 and got 710, which I felt was a good improvement, and then after doing some cementing SC exercises(which I felt were hard for me even after all the prep) and following some guidance of Aakash(e-gmat mentor) I took sigma mock 2 and got 730 with SC ability now at 76 percentile. After this, I just did OG questions till my GMAT online date, which was coming very soon, and got 700(V38, Q49).
I feel that my timing has improved thanks to E-Gmat cementing exercises, which gave me the confidence to book the test.
Timing in SC has been a major problem for me since day 1 and based on feedback from the platform's metrics and even from Aakash, I still have a lot to improve in timing my SC strategy(my avg is above 2min 10sec).
Just wanted to share my journey till now and say special thanks to all the platforms and mentors who have helped me get here. For my next attempt, I am going to continue prepping further with E-gmat, so that I can close the remaining gaps in my strategy and knowledge.
As it is said “It takes a village to move a mountain”, and in this case, “it takes the help of a village brilliant people to crack GMAT”
