<p>I am always on point with sentence completions. I get around a 600-630 on practice exams for CR because I miss 3-4 questions a section with the passages… </p>
<p>When I grade them, I understand why I got the question wrong… everything makes sense… </p>
<p>What should I do with my last week (willing to put in a couple hours a day) to get my 600-630 score to around a 700</p>
<p>** Note… I always have my Passage questions down to 2 answer choices, and I pick the wrong one occasionally </p>
<p>I have looked at all the big threads (noitaraperp etc) but to no steady improvement</p>
<p>Find the evidence in the passage yourself…I do that all the time, and my score has been improving gradually…I’m in the 640’s right now. CR is like a treasure (or scavenger) hunt.</p>
<p>Im not sure if a week is enough for this technique but you can try. What I did was always marked down the line references first before reading. Then I read the passage at a faster speed but without analyses until I got to my underlined parts. I then analyzed the underlined parts and answered the question right then and there. Doing this technique allows for both an increase in speed and in accuracy. An increase in speed because you are only analyzing the underlined parts and an increase in accuracy because you are breaking everything down into chunks. I used this technique to get a 770 on cr</p>
<p>I know this is what everyone always says but in CR, the answers are always on the passages. There’s couple different types of answers that CB gives out to screw with us such as the mixed-relationship questions, contradiction questions, irrelevance questions, etc… But like spuding said, whenever I start my LONG Passages, I draw a line next to the reference questions and I also draw a line on the question itself. For broad questions such as, what is the main message of this passage, I circle the question number and I answer them last. Because when you complete all the line reference questions like, in line 43 “cool” most likely means…, you generally skim the entire passage and therefore you can answer the broad questions for last.</p>
