Yep, I fought for almost 6+ months (full time) to be mediocre in finding assumption. I used to spend 3-4 hours on each questions on EGMAT. Finding assumption I would say one of the toughest qualities needed to excel in CR.
But my query was not regarding assumption. That was a strengthener ques. You are most welcome to correct me.

According to my learnings from various verbal experts, Every assumption acts as strengthener but every strengthener is not an assumption ( in this latter case you bring new information). So first step while solving Strengthen or Weaken question is to bridge the gap between premise and conclusion ( nothing but finding the assumption). I would say more than 75% job is done if you find the assumption for weaken or strengthen question. Life becomes much easier after this process.

Sure, Sathvik! I know this is the e-gmat concept of solving the CR ques. As I had attended their sessions. But, as per TTP, this concept is explained totally in a different way. So, I was just following say TTP approach. I do consider your thought process too. That will be helpful to ace the CR ques more perfectly. Thank you so much.

I have a poster in my room, which says "It ain’t about how hard you hit, it’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward " ( famous line from my fav Rocky 6, ). So I just keep moving forward.

Any recommendations to pre think in simple way?

Have you tried other approaches. Like the ones from Charles - GMAT Ninja or other tutors in GMAT Clubs videos? Cause personally for me, I dont ever rely on a tutor so that I can find multiple ways that suits me to approach a Q and combine em.

It’s not the right approach. If you pre-think then you may end up marking wrong answers.

Hard, I find extremely difficult to even figure out what is conclusion or assumptions.

I am just simply following the TTP online self-study course but you supplement your prep with Charles Ninja’s videos too, They are also simply awesome.

Then I suggest you to learn the art of pre thinking. EGMAT, Gmat ninja or any other source are almost the same, and they will tell you to learn this art. I know it’s difficult but not impossible.

none of my pre thinking has matched with E-GMat’s till date.. Unable to understand how they come up with those options and so fast
