Congratulations.

For CR did you find OG 11 or OG Verbal questions closer to the actual exam?
Same question for RC?

Thanks

Thanks Swati.
I have time to do 100 CR and 100 RC questions from the official guides.
For CR I can do all of them from the OG 11 edition or 50 from OG 11 and 50 from OG Verbal. What would you recommend?
Same for RC?

Thanks

Thanks Destroyer and thanks Ian for the tip: draw number line in this question.

Ian, is it useful to draw a number line in most of the absolute value questions?
Are there any other useful tips in solving questions related to absolute values?

Thanks

Wow! two totally different point of views.
Correct answer is C.

I plugged in few numbers, however those numbers did not lead me to the correct answer.
So which numbers are good to plug in, in these type of inequality questions so we arrive to the answer quickly and correctly?
Thanks

Powerprep Q

What is the process to solve these type of questions?
If I try to plug-in different numbers to see the result of the expression it takes a long time. Moreover I may miss plugging-in a number that I should have.
Are there any good plugging numbers for these kind f questions?
Thanks
