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,
AIM GMAT

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
