I was wondering if there are any CR tips you guys suggest? For example is it better to read the question first then the stem, or the other way around.
Any references / guides that you think are useful. I am not asking for books, just quick reads and tips to help up the score.
I looked in the Verbal forum but didn't find much.
Thanks!

I like the Powerscore CR bible. The bible lists tips at the end of every chapter. I think it is an excellent source to improve CR.
Also, the bible suggests reading the stimulus first and then the question stem. it defends this strategy. It suggests that reading the question stem works for easy questions but not on difficult ones. Moreover, if the question stem has a lot of new information, then you end up wasting 10-15 seconds reading the stem unnecessarily and then rereading it again after you read the stimulus.

Really concentrate on whether each sentence builds on the previous one. Each sentence must be connected somehow. If it they aren't, that's probably where you should be looking for the answer. You should be able to tell what's wrong with probably 3/4 of the sentences before reading the choice.
I always read the question after the passage. When practicing, for a long time, for each CR passage I would write the conclusion and how each sentence in the passage applied, eventually I didn't need to write it down anymore.
