types of CR questions

Test Preparation
1

<p>I’ve come across some practice tests that ask me about author’s main idea, best title for this passage, this word in line __ most nearly means ___, etc etc etc blah blah blah.</p>

<p>Then I come to a question with 3 roman numerals,
I.---------
II.----------
III.--------</p>

<p>each of the roman numerals have a statement, and the answer choices contain some or all of the numerals. I am asked to pick the answer choice that contains the correct roman numerals. Now I’m wondering if there is going to be a question like this on the real SAT cr section? or is it just on some practice test?</p>

<p>thanks, please rant out anything in your heart that bothers you with CR because some of the practice tests these days are just abnormal.</p>

<p>yes, you’ll definitely see at least one question in this set up. there are even some math questions like that. they’re my least favorite type of question.
the thing about the cr section is that it is constantly trying to trip you up with the words. they purposefully set you up to think one answer is right when it’s not. they do set up traps in math too.
also, i hate vocabulary. it’s all about memorizing the definitions of words. you have barely any context clues to help you.</p>

<p>All I hate for passage reading are novel/literature passages describing a scene with dialogue. I always get 1-2 questions wrong. Everything else is relatively easy to me :p</p>
