Hi elija,
What resources have you been using to study CR questions?
As a general rule, on any CR question, you need to define:
1) The goal - what is the question asking you to do?
2) The facts - what information were you given to work with?
3) The conclusion - what is the author's opinion or suggestion?
4) The logic - how does the author get from the facts to the conclusion?
It's also worth knowing how to spot what the wrong answers usually "look like" so that you can avoid them.
So, it's a multi-step process, but a consistent one. If you're not comfortable doing CR questions, then maybe the approach that you're using needs to be adjusted. The good news is that once you find an approach that's easy for you to use, you'll be able to use it repeatedly.

Dear, it would be conducive if you post the content of DI and Puzzles. Because I am giving CET and it has a very high weightage of these topics. Thanks for Critical reasoning.
