"Like" is used for "comparing nouns"."As" is used for "comparing actions"."Such as" is used for "giving examples".
"Generalization"- The fallacy of making a claim on evidence that is too small.
A favorite GMAT CR fallacy.
Example: At 90, Mr McGill drinks sweetened soda every day and yet, maintains good health. The elderly can, therefore, have sweetened soda every day and, yet, maintain good health.
Be cautious when you see extreme tonality on a CR question or answer choices.Example: must, most, highest, lowest, worst, best etc
- Often, the key to elimination/selection of an answer choice lies in such extreme terms.
Backup strategy: On the real GMAT, if you get an RC that you just can't comprehend......you must mark randomly and move on...
- Don't let one RC decide the fate of your complete GMAT score.-- Rather, save time and get the remaining questions correct!
You can score the 99th percentile despite getting 20% questions incorrect.
Don't get stuck on any one question!
Even x Even = EvenEven x Odd = EvenOdd x Odd = Odd
Even + Even = EvenEven + Odd = OddOdd + Odd = EvenOdd + Odd = Even
Question: Is X = 7?(1): X is not a prime number.(1) is sufficient. Because (1) leads to "No, X is not equal to 7".
Commas cannot join two independent clauses.Incorrect: Amy sings, she enjoys it.Correct: Amy sings; she enjoys it.Correct: Amy sings, and she enjoys it.
Key difference between "Strengthening statements" and "Evaluation statements" on CR:
- A strengthening statement "helps" an argument.
- An evaluation statement may "help" or "hurt" an argument.-- Either way, it leads to an "evaluation" on the argument.
Schedule your GMAT (only) once you get your target score on 3 consecutive mocks!
Don't leave mocks for the end- it's a common mistake.Take a mock every week.
A fraction will terminate if its denominator has no prime factor other than 2 or 5.
17/160Prime factors of "160" are "2" and "5". So, this fraction WILL terminate.
13/480One of the prime factors of "480" is "3".So, this will NOT terminate.
120
In DS, an answer is achieved only when the answer is "consistent".
Q. Is X a multiple of 24?(1) X is a multiple of 6.(2) X is a multiple of 4.
X = 24 satisfies both (1) and (2), leads to "Yes".X = 12 satisfies both (1) and (2), leads to "No"."Inconsistent". Hence, insufficient. Answer is E.
