CRITICAL REASONING ** PLEASE HELP**

by an lam » Tue Dec 06, 2011 12:23 pm
Would need your help on this. I have been learning how to solve CR problems by the 7 stategies devised by Eric. I have practiced quite a lot of problem from all the OG books (both the thick book and the verbal book) and yet the highest percentage I got was 50%. I am kind of stuck in this specific session of verbal (I don't have many issues with Reading comprehension or sentence correction). I don't know what I could do to improve my score. I have my exam day in a month and I am really tight on time (full time working and spending 2-3 hours a day on both maths and verbal). Many thanks for advising me some tips so that I can get over this.

I'm starting to see that CR is more about reading carefully, understanding clearly the question being asked, and then going from there. If you try too hard to fit these questions into one strategy or another, I can see how things might get even more confusing.

But, still, I'm curious as to what these strategies are.

I think you should spend more on verbal. Do not touch to math until you have 7-10 days before the G-day. Just practice - the most valuable thing to learn
