CR questions in OG12 too easy?

by alex10 » Wed Sep 02, 2009 3:44 am
Hey there,

can I expect CR questions like those in the OG12 to appear in the real GMAT as well? I just did seven CR questions using Kaplan Advanced (4 correct, 3 wrong) and compared it to my results of seven OG12 questions (7 correct, 0 wrong)... so I am worried the OG12 CR questions might be too easy to properly improve my skills.

Any opinion on that?

Thanks and bye!

May be you are doing good. If you want challenging CR questions, you can go through the last set of CR questions in OG 12. The toughness of CR question increases with the number...

Exactly, try further ones in numbers. For example... there is one about "credit cards" that i think will flip the heads of most people around.

Go with oG only. should be sufficient.

Try 67 and 94 in OG 12. PLEASE, tell me if you have difficulty with either and why ?

I want to find out if questions I find difficult are difficult for most people or not.

Much appreciated.

I tried #94 yesterday and got it right. Haven't tried #67 yet.

I have problems with questions like that: https://www.beatthegmat.com/choi-hart-t44359.html (from Kaplan Advanced)
