GUYS I THINK THIS IS THE EASIEST PORTION OF VA AS MY ACCURACY IN THIS AREA HAS BEEN 100% IN ALMOST EVERY SIMCAT. HERE IS HOW I GO FOR THE JUMBLED SENTENCE ARRANGEMENT TYPE

APPROACH ONE
READ ALL THE FOUR SENTENCES AND TRY TO TRACE LINK BETWEEN TWO SENTENCE. ONCE U GET THIS REST IS CAKE WALK.

APPROACH TWO
OUT OF GIVEN FOUR OPTIONS SELECT THE OPTIONS THAT HAVE COMMON STARTING AND THEN SENSE WHICH ONE IS CORRECT BY CHECKING WHTHER THE LAST STATEMENT IS SUITABLE FOR THE CLOSING OF PASSAGE OR NOT.

BELIEVE ME THIS IS THE EASIEST PORTION OF VA.

The retest RC was pretty simple.If my memory serves me right, 99th %ile was around 31-32 in that section.

read read read and read more
there is no other option to improve ur vocab other than to read..
read at least 2 newspapers...a national daily and a financial newspaper daily..
keep a dictionary handy...look up words that you dnt understand..
read all kinds of books and try to speak exclusively in English...
try to work on the word list..
and develop ur reading speed..and develop strategy for clearing Verbal..but thats only after you start with ur mock CATs...dont worry..u have plenty of time
