Re: Advice Required !!

Practice and rectify, try not using the same resources for testing again.

I don't know if this will help because my V score was not so good, but I improved it this way:

I started my verbal preparation just 3 days before my exam . What I did was to skim Barron's looking for all words I didn't know (a lot!) and then asociate those words with something (anything!) ridiculous. The more ridiculous, the better. For instance, to remeber "sycophant" I imagined a psychotic elephant kissing somebody's feet

I know this is not a good way to learn a foreign languaje, it but allowed me to remember many words that otherwise I couldn't have remebered. And many of them came in the actual test!
