Guys,
I am having a lot of trouble facing verbal questions about "supporting ideas" and "logical structure".

What do you experts recommend for me? Should I focus just on practicing? Or must I review books?

My performance in both "types" of verbal question cited above is far below the results achieved in Main idea, Inferences, Applying Info to a context outside the text and Style and Tone.

I pray for you guys to have a good recommendation for this problem.

Thanks again!![/quote]

Hi Marcelo,

How long have you been studying?
What resources have you been using?

The process for Reading Comp is essentially the same for all passages, regardless of length and subject matter, so there's something to be said for practicing a consistent set of tactics.

Hello,

How long have you been practicing or have you been studying? And what are the references you have used? Practicing can really help but of course the type of reference matters too.
It's a good thing to learn how to deal with stress.
