GMAT 800 - Critical Reasoning - HELP

[momentary_lapse]

Hi All,

I was doing pretty well studying the OG and taking the GMAT Prep tests. THen I decided to study from the Kaplan GMAT 800.

The quant was good and challenging enough to be interesting and tough at the same time, the 8 SC hints and tips were also good.

But the CR is crazy.. Im doing it right now and I have a success rate of 50%. It's just so tough.

Does everyone else also think so? What would your %age of correct answers be? I feel pretty low thinking that Im doing something wrong.

In my practice tests, it was mostly SC I was getting wrong but now it seems that my CR is worse.

Please let me know what you think of the GMAT 800 CR.

THanks in advance!

Don't let your performance in GMAT 800 bring your spirits down. The book is ridiculously tough, and for the most part much more difficuult than what you should expect on the real GMAT.

I did really poorly throughout GMAT 800 yet still scored a 700+ on the real test.

Best of luck!
