As "do" generally refers to actions, "do so" is more often correct than "do it".
Backup strategy: On the real GMAT, if you feel that you are running very short of time on the Verbal section......you must mark one RC randomly and move on...
-- Use the saved time to perform very well on the remaining questions!
While attempting AWA, type the first and the last paragraphs first.
- This will ensure that your essay will look 'complete', even if you run out of time.- This will give you more time to think about the middle paragraphs.
In DS, an answer is achieved only when the answer is "consistent".
Q. Is X a multiple of 24?(1) X is a multiple of 6.(2) X is a multiple of 4.
X = 24 satisfies both (1) and (2), leads to "Yes".X = 12 satisfies both (1) and (2), leads to "No"."Inconsistent". Hence, insufficient. Answer is E.

Key difference between "Assumption statements" and "Strengthening statements" on CR:
Assumption statements are a subset of Strengthening statements.
- A strengthening statement fills the missing link.- An assumption statement fills the missing link and must be true for the argument to hold ground.
The mind-map-strategy for RCs
1.Skim through the first paragraph.Take your eyes off the screen.
2. Ask yourself the paragraph's "purpose" .Purpose is always very, very brief.Avoid paraphrasing the details.
3. Skim through the next paragraph.Take your eyes off.Ask yourself the paragraph's "purpose".Link the purpose of the first paragraph with that of the second.
4. Keep repeating Step 3 for all the subsequent paragraphs.
1-week gap in prep hurts your progress by 3-weeks.
In DS, beware of "exceptions".
Q. Is X positive?(1) |X| = X.
Because of the exception "X = 0" case, this statement is insufficient.

On the GMAT, ensure 'completing' each section.- "no attempts" attract greater penalty than "negative attempts" do.
