Your best tips for CR!!!

by MAAJ » Fri Apr 08, 2011 8:02 am
I haven't studied CR much, for not saying at all. So I was wondering what are your best tips for this section.

- Like should I read the entire passage first? or read the question first?

- Or should I read the first 1-2 sentences of each paragraph and try connect the ideas between paragraphs?

- Should I take notes?

Note: Overall, I don't have much time to study now just do CAT like crazy to get stamina/speed up 'cause my test is in a few days!!!

Hi MAAJ ,

As you mentioned you dnt have much time to try out strategies , so i would be of opinion that you must envolve in active reading with awareness of time . To make reading an active one , you can make a map of passage in ur mind and take little bit of notes to keep intrested in the passage . And the questions are to be answered just as we do with the CR .

Hope that helps . Best luck with the test.
Thanks & Regards,
