Hey Guys, Quick question:

In the princeton review 2009 it says there are only 8 types of problems. Strategy wise, do you guys think its a good idea once I realize a question is a CR problem to read the question first, determine which of the 8 types of problem it is, then read the paragraph and do the question? If not, let me know what you think.

Also, it says the SC makes mostly the same 8 errors in its questions for you to spot, how often is it these errors? (pronoun, misplaced modifier, parallel construction, parallel comparison, tense, subject very agreement, idiom, quantity words)
--What are other types of errors commonly made?

Thanks all! btw, if this reads weird I've had a long day so I apologize.

In my opinion, I don't really worry too much about the question types. Most frequently, questions are categorized as:

- Demolish the argument made.
- Strengthen the argument made.
- Make an inference from the argument made.
- What assumption is made in the argument?

When doing CR problems, I usually try to fit the question first into one of the above statements (this takes about 5 seconds... of course, I read this again even after I read the passage). This works out pretty well for me; using this approach, I can answer CR questions quickly and correctly.
Have you wondered how you could have found such a treasure? -T
