SC practice

by vishalc581 Wed Sep 30, 2015 3:06 pm

Hi,

I am done with the Manhattan's SC book once. Now I have started doing Questions from OG'15 and I am also going through Manhattan's SC book again as initially I left some concepts, exercise in the end of each chapter and the last 3 chapters.

Now, I want to know what practice material I should do for practice in addition to OG questions. I have seen in many threads 1000 SC is not a good source.

I wish Manhattan team add some practice questions in strategy book.

Any suggestion for practice material for SC?

Should I start with Powerscore SC questions? I mean just with questions I don't want to go with grammar from that book again.

Also, I want to confirm Manhattan's SC edition 6th is latest?

What should be my approach for analyzing SC questions and especially SC questions from OG ?

Thanks & Regards,
Vishal

Unless you have a very good, specific reason to go outside of the three Official Guides, you'll get more out of studying them more slowly and carefully and redoing/reviewing your work, then you will from doing a huge number of new problems. They represent more or less the full range of what you can possibly see on the test, so if you've done them once and you still aren't getting the score that you'd like, it stands to reason that you didn't understand them as well as you thought.

The Sentence Correction topic on our blog is a good starting place to appreciate the depth with which you want to review questions:

And you're right, the sixth edition strategy guides are the latest ones.

this question doesn't belong in the current folder. this sort of thing belongs in the 'General GMAT Study Questions' folder (= first folder on the forum home page).

although this folder has the word 'general' in its name, it is still for questions about specific GMAT-related items. (the word 'general' in the title refers to this folder's role as a catch-all for sources other than MPrep and GMAC.)

thanks.
