Re: GMAT RC Tricks

Reading Comprehension is important section in GMAT. The Reading Comprehension section is one of the trickiest parts of the GMAT. The passages are long, convoluted, more likely to put you to sleep than to pique your interest in the midst of a 3.5 hour exam.

Tricks for GMAT Reading Comprehension:

Do an initial reading and take notes
Look for structural words and other text markers
A final tip for two-paragraph short passages

Reading Comprehension passages are up to 350 words long. Topics contain material from the social sciences, physical or biological sciences, and business-related areas (marketing, economics, human resource management, etc.).

Tricks /Pointers could think of:

Read between the Paragraphs.

Read for Author's Main Idea and Primary Purpose.

Create a thought flowchart by writing down the Main Idea and Primary purpose after each paragraph.

The Main Idea of the passage is the repeated idea in each of the Main ideas

The primary purpose is mostly the Primary purpose of the concluding paragraph.
Classify the passages as Explanatory (Mostly Science passages, explain one theory/phenomenon in detail)
Comparative

Argumentative
Paraphrase the text to simplify.

Don't go for choices which exaggerate the author's conclusion.

Don't fill in the blanks yourself. Use only as much is there in the passage.

Read quickly through soporific passages.

Read the first question before the Passage.

Use your Critical Reasoning techniques for reasoning/inference/strengthen/weaken questions.
