Verbal Practice Resources

[xvidkid]

Hi guys

 

Ive been doing some searching on the forum and have not been successful in finding supplemental verbal practice passages. So far I have the Ek 101 verbal and the AAMC practice exams. I heard that the Princeton Reviews Hyperlearning Verbal workbook is good, but I have not been able to find a copy anywhere(checked ebay, classifieds, etc). Can anyone recommend any more practice resources? Also, I was wondering what the best way to attack the EK 101 passages is, in terms of daily passage budgeting. Is it better to do a few passages a day, or the entire exams at once?

I did a search on ebay and found the princeton review book for verbal though it is pretty expensive. ebay also has the in-class compendium for tpr which has about 30 verbal passages in it. This one is cheaper at $24. Here are the links:

In regards to how you should do the examkrackers, I would recommend doing a full exam at one sitting. This way you will build up your stamina and get used to doing 7 passages in a row. I usually do a verbal test from examkrackers every three days. I take a break in between though to rest my brain though I usually do a couple of passages on my days off but nothing major. Hope this helps!
