Will definitely do!
I know this is off topic, but wow, a 51 on verbal? How?
I've been really paranoid about verbal of late. I got a 39 first time going in without any study on the official test, and then a 45,37,32,36 on four subsequent MGMAT practice tests, and 40,40 on two official gmat practice tests. I've never actually studied for verbal and i've always chosen answers based on 'gut' feeling and how the answers sound/if they make sense. (i read and write a whole lot)
Do you think its advisable to pickup a course/book on verbal and drill myself on the rules? or just sort of spam practice questions (since I have only about 18 days left)?
Sorry for derailing the thread!

A course at this stage probably won't help, but going through an SC book might. You are doing very well in verbal, and some additional familiarity with SC could help you improve your speed and/or accuracy (especially if there are some minor weaknesses in your approach). Just don't make too many changes (you're on track for more than 90% in verbal).
