Wow, Shadowmist! I am SOOOO excited to hear about your score increase, especially since this is just a fraction of the total work. Makes what I do worthwhile. Congratulations!

Simple to read and thorough! Nice guide. I would like to add that the SAT usually uses "literal" answers. For example:

What does the phrase "it's raining cats and dogs" mean?
A) it's raining hard
B) cats and dogs pour down from the sky
C) wrong answer
D) wrong answer
E)wrong answer

In this question, B would be false because it is too literal.

THANK YOU! I feel like I definitely comprehend the "critical" concept behind CR better!

That's so helpful!!!! I wish I had seen it earlier.
I actually used some of these techniques in the test, but it is not as clear as to see a comprehensive analysis like this!!! I am so bad in CR..... I hope I could raise my score to 600 in Dec one.......
Thank you so much!

This was a great post. I don't have a method of answering my Critical Reading questions. I'm going to implement this method when I take the SAT next time.
