An Architect's Look at Critical Reasoning -- Drawing a Blueprint for Nearly All S/W Questions

a Video Lecture by Veritas PrepA part of the 1,000,000 posts celebration

Much like an x-ray allows doctors to see past the surface to the skeleton of a human, sound Critical Reasoning strategy can take you past the skin-deep subject matter that so often makes these questions difficult, and attack each question surgically by focusing on the way that all questions are structured. Join Brian Galvin, Veritas Prep’s Director of Academic Programs, as he teaches you how to solve even the most complex Critical Reasoning questions.

Is it possible to post the direct link to video (youtube etc) like it is done for Kaplan's breaking 700 video?

Not able to access this video as it asks for fb login.

Best questions & answers from comments



Ace Richards
does having a solid base of sentence correction and critical reasoning helps in solving RC questions?
Show more
Veritas Prep
Definitely, Ace - this link stays updated with the next few seminars: https://www.gmatclub.com/forum/veritas-prep-resource-links-no-longer-available-399979.html#-gmat-webinar/. Tonight's is specific to verbal so some of it is like what you just saw, and we'll hit some Sentence Correction too. The next one will be quant-based, and we alternate from there so that we can dive a little deeper than just general coverage with the time we have.

Sonya Shah
out of the five examples you gave, only 2 questions i could ans. correctly...working cr from ogs is sufficient?
Show more
Veritas Prep
Hey Sonya - well, I intentionally chose pretty tough examples since I've always believed you learn a lot more from your mistakes than from your triumphs. So that's sort of by design. A good combination of the OG, the official practice tests, and thorough analysis of not just "what was the right answer?" but "what was the trap I fell for in the wrong answer?" and "how can I better approach these in the future?" should be a really good study strategy. Those are great tools, but remember that it's more about what you learn from them than just the fact that you did them!
