Taking only MGMAT Verbal Section for Verbal Practice?

by idragmazda Sun Mar 06, 2011 6:44 pm

Hey all,

I wanted to know if this is a good strategy for studying for the verbal section on the GMAT: completing only the verbal section on the MGMAT CAT every other day (and reviewing incorrect answers)

I completed all of the OG12 problems with almost no major hang ups (and I bought the official verbal guide but people say its useless for harder questions so I dont even know if i'm going to even use it).

I took the GMAT twice and I cant seem to get my score above the 37 range on the verbal section.

Are the OG12 questions just that easy or is the GMAT that much harder since OG12 came out?

I have the Critical Reasoning bible and it helped explain the question types a bit better, and I went through the MGMAT SC book as well.

I was thinking about just taking the verbal section of the CAT every other day (my official test is in about 2 weeks) and reviewing my errors. Any opinions? Is this smart?

I know its the harder (700+) questions that are holding me back (based on the CAT evaluation report), most questions below 700 level (according to MGMAT) I am getting right.

Thanks!

Hi pateldin,
I think this is a more appropriate question for the General section of the message board; would you mind reposting it there? Here's the link: general-gmat-strategy-questions-f9.html
