"Confusing-cause-with-effect"
A favorite GMAT CR fallacy.
Example: Every time I dream, I sleep.
Backup strategy: On the real GMAT, if you feel that you are running very short of time on the Verbal section......you must mark one RC randomly and move on...
-- Use the saved time to perform very well on the remaining questions!
Backup strategy: On the real GMAT, if you get an RC that you just can't comprehend......you must mark randomly and move on...
- Don't let one RC decide the fate of your complete GMAT score.-- Rather, save time and get the remaining questions correct!
In DS, an answer is achieved only when the answer is "consistent".
Q. Is X a multiple of 24?(1) X is a multiple of 6.(2) X is a multiple of 4.
X = 24 satisfies both (1) and (2), leads to "Yes".X = 12 satisfies both (1) and (2), leads to "No"."Inconsistent". Hence, insufficient. Answer is E.
Spot the error: Teacher taught that the Earth revolved around the sun.
"revolved" is not correct. It must be "revolves".(Universal truths are always conveyed in simple present tense).
Do not chase "tricks/tips/shortcuts". Chase "concepts"!
Do not chase "scores"; chase "learning". Scores will follow.
Areal probability
When you need to find probability of a specific area to be selected out of the total area.
P(E) = Desired Area / Total Area
Jack wishes that he was an athlete. : IncorrectJack wishes that he were an athlete. : Correct
A subjunctive mood construction - (wish + plural form of verb)
On the verbal section, be cautious when you see an answer choice with "extreme" emotion.
Answer choices with "moderate" tonality have a higher probability of being correct.
Don't exhaust official material early- it's a common mistake.Save it for the last few weeks.
1-week gap in prep hurts your progress by 3-weeks.
In DS, beware of "exceptions".
Q. Is X positive?(1) |X| = X.
Because of the exception "X = 0" case, this statement is insufficient.
