It's been over a year i have been doing GMAT. I know it's a really bad habit to study on and off but these past few weeks I have been studying every day. I discover from the day I started my gMAT Prep and today my CRnever improves at all.
I dont want to take the test anymore I feel like it's the end of the world forme to go to a dream business school. Others are on holidays having fun. Me studying the GMAT just for the sake of scoring nowhere near target score.
I have read the whole book of Powerscore and Done most of the E-GMAG critical reasoning but my CR in reality never improves. I don't know what to do anymore. I always got like 2-4/10 for every attempts I do. I can't focus on hard questions. The wording in the answer choices use too many abstract term I dont even know what it means. The only think i can understand and form logical expression from is the premise/conclusion indicator. From reading i know what is premise/ conclusion but my main problem is tackling the answer choice. For hard answerchoices, out of 5 choices, most of the time i read all the answer choices and found non as a potential answer, this is really frustrating. It's like the end of the world for me. I have no ambition to do anything anymore.

I suggest you to pick up some CR questions on the forum and ask specific doubts - what happened in this question? were you able to identify the premises and the conclusion? what was the pre-thinking? what did you think about each option? why did you ignore the right answer? etc. (Feel free to tag me.)
That will help us see what is wrong with your approach and will help us guide you better. The more detailed your analysis, better insights we will be able to provide.

Hi Nopointman,
Critical Reasoning is typically the 'smallest' portion of the Verbal section - and from your post, it's not clear whether you should actually be focused on CR or not. Before I can offer you the specific advice that you’re looking for, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:
Studies:
1) How long have you studied?
2) What materials have you used?
3) How have you scored on each of your CATs (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores)?
Goals:
4) What is your goal score?
5) When are you planning to take the GMAT?
6) When are you planning to apply to Business School?
7) What Schools are you planning to apply to?
GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
Rich
