If I memorize Barrons, Kaplans, Grubers, etc. Vocab list, then isnt it kind of pointless to learn prefix/suffixes/root words/latin?? One or the other right?

That helps significantly yes if you have the time to do all of that. Concentrate on Critical Reading too, on my 1st SAT I got everything correct on the verbal section with the exception of two CR's. My score dropped significantly because of that. CR makes up a good majority of the verbal section in terms of point value.

Read online newspapers, then quiz yourself on what it was about. Look at the story as in depth as you possibly are capable of. Read a few hundred online news stories doing this, and critical reading will be cake!
