I study cr collection of gmatprep, and see that there are 3 tricks which are used frequesntly.
1. restate evidence, a trap used for A and S questions 2. contradict evidence, a trap used for W questions 3. affecting conclusion outside context of evidence, a trap used for A, S, W questions.
in OG questions, I do not see these tricks. I guess these tricks are used for 700+ questions.
to know example of each kine, do searching "restate, contradict evidence " in this forum. For the 3rd kind, see the following example
he get 400 score on gmat. So he can not get in to Havard
a, havard need 600 score minimum b, 400 score shows a stupid person
B is wrong though B is very attractive. A is correct. the question for above argument is A or S .
we do not need to study these kind of tricks to get 700+. to get 700, we need to understand the argument in 30 seconds. We need very good reading capacity.

We need very good reading capacity.agree, personally i think the most challenging part of Critical reasoning is how to understand wordy argument and its options as fast as possible. That's the key. In difficulty level, the correct option is often very blur and requires some indirect infer steps while other options are made very tempting
