First thing is solve previous year RCs and verbal ability questions to know if your english is actually strong. If it's strong then take it to perfection and then in quants and lrdi...you can do major topics and do them in depth and ignore other topics.

I dont think thats a good idea , i have friend who only focused on arithmetic and also he studied maximum of that part skipping other topic . May be try something like that

no, because many colleges have sectional cut-offs, so you need to score well in all 3 sections. if you want to cut down on quants, focus mainly on arithmetic and second priority on algebra. this will get you a decent percentile. and arithmetic will also help you in lrdi so its a win-win

Not a good idea, would suggest prepare according to weightage wise and pick up the easy chapter wich u can go on anyday and solve as many questions as possible, they'll surely help
