Hello,

I just started working on 1000 CR questions posted on Wiki section, and found that I only get 50% right....

I am just wondering if those questions are real one (part of disclosure) or somehow made to be a bit more difficult for practice use. (which I hope)

Also, if you could give me any suggestion on how to study CR section. now I am just trying to solve CR 20-40 question from 1000 series, but I don't see any progress at all as to the percentage of my correct answers... so I am bit worried if I am doing right thing.

Any suggestion would be appreciated!

Thank you.
R. Razz

you need to practise a lot, in order to increase the accuracy.

The only materials you can trust is official guides. READ THEIR EXPLANATIONS... THEY ARE VITAL IN SETTING UP your own strategy to attack CR.

Okay - practice, practice and practice...that's what I thought. 8)

2 questions

1) are those questions on 1000 CR material generally harder than those in official guide?

2) should I also try LSAT questions on 1000 CR material or should I just work on GMAT sections.

Thanks!

you should work on GMAT questions first. if you still have time in for other types of questions.
But even before that you should learn what/which are ''GMAT types'' of questions, and for that u should refer to OG. Smile

I haven't studied the 1000 series exhaustively, but I have seen questions as people have posted and asked for help... and I haven't been impressed. If it were me, I wouldn't study from them.
