A passage usually comes with 6-7 questions in the RC section of the OG whereas only 1 question is being asked with the passage in RC practice section of the GMATPrep Pack 1.

Could you confirm the format of the RC section on the exam day? Thanks.

Hello, Greenwich.

A reading passage in the Verbal section on exam day will typically have 3-4 questions associated with it. I hope that helps!

Greenwich -

You will note that in the Official Guide several of the questions will overlap each other. So 2 different questions will ask the same thing in a little different way. You would not get both of those questions on test day since they ask essentially the same thing. The reason for having two questions asking for the same info is that one will be more difficult and one will be considered less difficult.
