6 out of 15 correct is a good start!
Keep faith and have positive approach.
I would not just emphasis on the various practise materials but also would concentrate on CR while reading other stuffs like newspapers/ magazines.

Believe me that improves your CR and RC skill a lot! :)

Hi,
I think you dont have a strategy to crack CR.
Are you able to identify premises, asumptions and conlusions while reading the question?

You need strategy for every section in GMAT.
(MGMAT CR book is good one)
Belive me, if you have a defined methodology, you will find that you already have the answer
before even looking at the answer choices.

Cheers,

I agree with blue lotus. If you have a clear understanding and grasp of the different types of CR questions and their corresponding strategies, you should be able to eliminate several answer choices right away. If you cannot even eliminate some of the answer choices nor have a clear grasp of the strategies, I suggest going over the CR stratgies materials again to reinforce your foundation. A big hint: scope is absolutely critical - many answer choices are eliminated due to scope problems.

Good start but gocha build

by knjeyanandan » Wed Feb 06, 2008 10:11 am
to put it frank,even i m a fresher and 6/15 is a good start
i would say .. start readin many articles and especially varying subjects

by doing so u will be able to appreciate the parts of english language

never mundanely by heart things
instead understand..

another suggestion is try writing on somethin u like ..
like a letter to ur love ...
or abt a general topic

beleive me .. writing improves u overtly a lot ... serious ..

all the best
