Hello,

I am solving Verbal section questions from the GRE Big Book. Under timed condition, Is it fine to skip long passages and focus on short passages (~15 lines) so that they replicate real-time GRE?

Any other advice to augment my prep is appreciated!

here the path of the question during the new GRE

https://gre.myprepclub.com/forum/shorte ... 33239.html

I suggest to practice only medium passages with at most 4 questions each.

Even though long passages are still possible and not deprecated, they are rare
