Clearly there is a gap in my understanding and comprehension.

One thing that may help a bit is including working with a study buddy. If, for example, you can find someone who is really strong on CR, you could offer to help with another area of the GMAT you're strong on in exchange. During your sessions, you could discuss CR passages/answer choices you've gathered that trouble you and get a sense how someone else may go through such questions as well.

On the other hand, I am able to tackle 655-705 and higher Q-levels of the LSAT material with an accuracy of 50% by following my CR notes.

Can someone pls help me Resolve the Paradox? (pun intended)
Hi DNS96,

Maybe it's something about LSAT questions in general, or maybe the prep material you used is more aligned to LSAT questions than to GMAT questions? GMAT questions are generally less technical, and the correct options may not use easily identifiable patterns.

Keep at it, and all the best.

Hello AjiteshArun, that is correct. I am able to identify wrong answers in LSAT quicker than official GMAT Qs. The Hard GMAT Qs require some good effort to simulate the scenario in my Mind Palace and followed by deduction of conjectures.
