MGMAT RC and CR techniques

Uphillclimb has put a good strategy to follow. my recom is that, do what is easy for you. try all including uphillclimb's strategy and kaplan, princeton or any other and see which is effective and choose one and stick to it. never change it then! you will be adept. believe!

good luck

I think the general point about minimizing note taking is quite right, especially on Critical Reasoning. It might be useful when starting out to take notes, until you're solid on the ways that questions are constructed, but you'd want to ease off that pretty quickly.

On the other hand, while I also absolutely agree that individual styles differ and what's most important is what works for you, I think most people are better served by a careful reading & some note-taking on Reading Comprehension than by a quick skim approach. Reading Comprehension is remarkably sensitive to the wording of the passage. The most important skill you need to develop is the ability to locate relevant sentences in the passage as quickly as possible. Skimming isn't going to equip you to do this, & could make you vulnerable to trap answer choices.

More on the Critical Reasoning and Reading Comp sections is available in Manhattan Review's Verbal Study Guide, which also contains some good practice problems:

I think the note taking helps you focus reading really dry subjects but other than that i don't see real value in it.
