The Reading Comprehension guide (1 of the 8 books in Manhattan GMAT's Preparation Guide series) provides a highly organized and structured approach to the variety of questions in this verbal content area. The guide introduces sketching and headlining techniques designed to facilitate active reading, increase comprehension, and improve time management.

The book offers a unique balance between two competing test-taking strategies and in-depth content understanding. Practice problem sets build specific foundational skills in each topic and include the most advanced content that many other prep books ignore.

Good techniques

The reading comprehension questions often are deemed by students as something that should come naturally. This book however proves there are formulaic ways to crack the code of RCs even reading doesn't come naturally to you.

a few good ideas on reading comprehension but nothing truly earth shattering. Still, this did help my game get slightly better so it does good marks.
