Wall Street Journal?

<p>Heard about this thing. Supposedly, it is expedient that I read an article a day from this source. Can anyone link me to the article section of this website? Sorry for the dumb question, but I couldn’t find it myself.</p>

<p>What does this have to do with the SAT? Sorry but O_o</p>

<p>He’s looking for CR help. </p>

<p>Some people claim that reading the WSJ helps with your vocabulary.</p>

<p>OH…! I see :slight_smile:
Sorry, don’t know where to get it :(</p>

<p>My local university has free copies everywhere on its campus. </p>

<p>You can also find some articles online. I’m not sure if WSJ publishes all of its printed content online as well … </p>

<p>What I do is more interesting is read Wikipedia articles on scientific journals its much more fun.</p>

<p>Generic… I would not find that fun at all. But hey, it’s up to you. </p>

<p>As for the effectiveness of reading The Journal, that is contingent upon your current score range, really. There isn’t that much new vocabulary to learn. However, reading The Journal is good preparation (I subscribe) for facing the convoluted and dreaded CR sections on the SAT.</p>

<p>Does this source provide articles, or news stories, or both? Thank you all for the informative responses so far, but I have yet one more request. I simply need a link to the articles section on the website. Where is the articles section, which is written by normal people and not reporters, located?</p>

<p>I don’t read the WSJ but I do read the Economist every week which is, from what I understand, a much more intelligent newspaper/magazine and since I have been reading it my scores in CR have indeed risen. It helps to read about subjects you may have little background which is what you get in the Economist. However I hope you actually enjoy reading this type of material otherwise it will be very tedious stuff. Also this could help on the writing section of the SAT where you can write about in your essay the recent elections in Portugal or some obscure topic, the reader may be impressed.</p>

<p>Agree with Iluvskool. Reading news from major medias can give you some solid examples.</p>

<p>If you copy and paste the headline on the “subscriber only” article on wsj.com into Google, you will be able to click the link and see the full article.</p>

<p>What the hell is CC is coming to…</p>

<p>Apparently, trying to get access to WSJ articles written by non-reporters…?</p>
