Hi skycop, I'm in a similar boat as you, but lately I've been killing it on RC so I wanted to chime in. I started prepping with the GRE official guide, doing those questions, and sample tests, and also Power Prep. I think it was a mistake to use both Power Prep MSTs so soon since that's all we've got. So if I were you, save the other one until closer to your test, and buy the Manhattan GRE tests for like $30. I also had the same relationship with RC too, and given that it's about half of my verbal score, I bought two online courses: Magoosh and Empower because I don't have the funds for Kaplan or Princeton. I think Magoosh was sweet for the vocab stuff, and Empower is particularly awesome for RC. It breaks down the questions in to three types: purpose, inference, and detail, and goes into the nuances of each. Do the free trial if you're on the fence about it. It's been a game changer for me. I've been in the high 160s on my last two Manhattan tests.
