The 3 key subjunctive mood constructions:
1. If + plural form of verb.If I were the Prime Minister, politics would be cleaner.
2. Subject + bossy verb + that + base form of verb.The judge ordered that the cop take the accused away.
3. Subject + bossy verb + that + something be done.The judge ordered that the accused be taken away by the cop.
On the GMAT, ensure 'completing' each section.- "no attempts" attract greater penalty than "negative attempts" do.
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.
In DS, when you are able to solve "too easily", you are probably missing a trap.
Q. Which integer is the highest common factor of four positive integers A, B, C, and D?(1) A= 27, B=49.
Unlike what many students will think, this statement is "Sufficient". Because no matter what "C" and "D" are, if HCF of "A" and "B" is 1, the answer is going to be "1".

Irrational: Can’t be presented in p/q form, where p and q are integers. Ex: √3, Pi
Rational: Can be presented in p/q form, where p and q are integers. Ex: 2, 0.45, 3/7, etc.
Present participles and gerunds "look" the same (verb+ing).However, their roles are different.
Present participle acts as a verb or adjective.Jack is running.
Gerund acts as a noun.Running is healthy.
"Inference statements" on CR:
- A statement that can be derived from the information within the passage. -- Without the need for any assumptions or extrapolations.

Areal probability
When you need to find probability of a specific area to be selected out of the total area.
P(E) = Desired Area / Total Area

Approach for CR boldface questions:
Step 1: Identify the conclusion.Step 2: Link the bold part(s) with the conclusion.Step 3: Know what to expect from the correct answer choice.Step 4: Eliminate four choices.
