In MGMAT I think CR came first. So i dont think there is such a format. :?
If OA is A, IMO B
If OA is B, IMO C
If OA is C, IMO D
If OA is D, IMO E
If OA is E, IMO A

FML!! :/

There is no order, I'm afraid...I haven't seen a GMAT begin with an RC, so in all probability, it will begin with a CR or an SC.
Btw, gmatblood..You can expect 3-4 RCs (3-4 questions in each).

Cheers!
