Critical Reasoning

We are about to start 2011 so I gathered together some of my critical reasoning posts from 2010. First are some original questions that I wrote along with explanations. Next are some "how to" for various question types. Finally, some responses to questions posted by others.
Enjoy!

Hi David Thanks for the Links.This was very considerate of you.Are any othe questions that you posted here from Gmat Prep or any CAT's ?

Mundasingh -

The original postings I wrote so those are not from the OG or GMATPrep. Many of the other posts are from the Veritas Critical Reasoning books.

If there is a particular official question that you would like to have analyzed?

Thank you David. YOur explanation for inference, plan and assumption question can be used as general strategy to attacking those important kinds of question.
Pls, give us an example of Strengthening/weakening question in which you detail your process of thinking/doing the question . We want to learn the way you do Strengthening/weakening questions.
