I have heard that MGMAT is good. I have no idea on CR Bible from Powerscore. Probably other members on the forum can let us know.
Wish you good luck

Take it from someone who has finished both books last month.

MGMAT is a really good book and you learn a lot while working on the action problems but CR Bible from Powerscore is going into more deeper with the explanations and cover all of the bases. If time is problem, I would go with the BIBLE, otherwise read both!

hi! I 've finished MGMAT and started Powerscore , yet neither did not work on me. After that , I've decided to solve the OG questions again with reading carefully and writting my wrong answers assumptions , premises , conclusions. I am now also using Paper Tests(retired questions) it is now working I think.

Hi perfectstranger,

These are some things that I'm trying to improve to get a better score in RC, may be you need to improve one of these (just in case English is not my native language).

- How much detail I can extract from the stimulus
- How much information can I retain from the stimulus (so I don't need to read it twice)
- Be *really* careful interpreting the words (most is not All, some is not most, etc).
- Do not generalize
- Avoid answering using previous knowledge on the subject or feeling/emotion. I have a had sciences background, and sometimes I find myself more interested in reading the facts in the stimulus than in answering the question.


Cheers,
Augusto
