Hi Experts, I have questions regarding the parallel reasoning questions
1- Does GMAT really ask such question in the test, because I can't find a single such question in OGs., If yes what is the frequency?
2- Is there a codified approach to such questions? Because how much ever I try I am not able to formulate a set of process to approach such questions whereas for other CR questions we have negation technique, pre-supposition tech, weighing the +ve and -ve of arg. technique etc.

Hi sriamlan,
Have not seen many such qns on myself during the prep stage but they dont seem to be really tough. They are a bit tricky in nature though.
GMAT often tries to exploit the current knowledge by rephrasing the qns language a bit and forcing the test takers to chose the wrong ans choice.
Ideally what I have observed is that the right ans choice will have the same LOGICAL structure but the scenario will be a different one. It could be a reverse situation also with the same logic applied negatively.
