Research has proven that one of the ways of scoring high in any scholarship screening exercise is the comprehensive study of its Past Questions and Answers because of the verbatim repetition of questions.
The exam is generally offered by computer only; in areas of the world where computer networks are limited, the exam may be given as a paper-based test. They always have five answer choices; one choice is objectively the best, while the rest are objectively inferior. These questions most closely resemble the mathematics questions you have seen on other standardized tests.
Problem Solving questions are one of the two types of question the Quantitative section of the test. Data Sufficiency questions always have two data statements, labeled 1 and 2 , and the answer choices are always identical to the answer choices in this sample question.
The format is not overly complicated once you get used to it, but there is plenty of room for test-taking strategy in this question type. You will generally answer a Sentence Correction question in under a minute. Sentence Correction questions are mixed in with Critical Reasoning questions and Reading Comprehension questions on the Verbal Section of the exam. As you can see in this sample question, the first answer choice contains a phrase that is identical to the underlined phrase in the question prompt.
Of the question types that appear on the Verbal section, Critical Reasoning is the medium-length type, since Reading Comprehension questions require digesting an entire passage before getting to the questions. Critical Reasoning questions are an important area of practice for the GMAT exam, one that is often underestimated.
Many people take for granted that they will have to brush up on mathematics skills, but they think of Verbal skills as innate and not subject to improvement. This is not the case! Reading Comprehension are best viewed in a realistic interface with passage and question side by side, so for these practice question, we will point you straight inside the GMAT Free course no registration is required; you can click on through. GMAT Reading Comprehension passages are often a single paragraph, although passages of three to four paragraphs are also common.
Reading Comprehension represents the GMAT test area that is most difficult to improve quickly since reading skills are acquired over a lifetime and not improved overnight. Nevertheless, an improvement in this question type is possible and many of the techniques that we will cover for Critical Reasoning can also be applied to Reading Comprehension.
The cost of the newly updated GMAT past questions is 2, Like the Sentence Correction Grail, the Critical Reasoning Grail is written in an engaging manner and will equip you with all the skills that you need to tackle Critical Reasoning questions confidently. This book is superior to the other books available for Critical Reasoning in many ways.
Similarly question types such as Logically complete the passage, which are increasingly being tested on the GMAT, find no mention in other books, whereas the CR Grail has an entire chapter that discusses this question type.
What also distinguishes the GMAT Critical Reasoning Grail is that it helps you master Critical Reasoning in a step-by-step manner, using jargon free language and does not make you dependent on the diagrammatic approach. It is also the only book that provides you Critical Reasoning Questions for practice. It is not uncommon to see a GMAT students vociferously justify their answer choice in the Critical Reasoning section - when, of course, their choice is incorrect.
And one of the primary reasons for that is assumptions. When we are reading a short passage packed with information, it is easy to start making assumptions. While some of these assumptions are pertinent, others shift the scope. This shift in scope often leads us to the 'logically correct' answer choice which is actually wrong. So how do you avoid making assumptions?
How do you stay within scope? How do you avoid falling into traps that the test makers lay for you? Perhaps more so than for any other question type on the GMAT, preparing for Critical Reasoning questions involves developing critical thinking skills-rather than rote practice.
Unfortunately, short of enrolling for a formal'Critical Thinking' course, there is no easy way to develop these skills from ground up.
