Thanks a lot Sameer for those helpful blog links on CR

To the GoGMAT Team,

Please validate
TIP:
Also I noticed a pattern in CR questions, when one have boiled down to two options(both support the assumption) which are same(and correct) - one should select
- 'positive statement' from the negative and positive one and
- 'general statements' among general and particular one.

I found this pattern working good for me.

Regards,

Regards,
this TIP is good for strengthen questions. Usually, when we are dealing with assumption questions, it may be useful to check answers with a denial test. If we deny the correct assumption, it should weaken conclusions. Wrong assumptions in denial do nothing to the argument. By denying we mean putting "no" or "not" into the statement.
if this comment does not answer your question, please re-state the question.

Hi,

I am getting a score of 720-730 in practice tests. I am aiming for a slightly higher score preferably 750 but I’m stuck with the RC passages. On the blog I've seen that you've shared tips on RC but I wish there were some passages as well. Would you be able to share some examples on RC with solutions and explanations?

Thanks

Abhi
