<p>Honestly I have no idea why people think that reading “famous” works of literature will boost your CR score. JK. It will, but’s it’s INSANELY INEFFICENT. For CR, there is NOTHING that will raise your score as much as practice tests. </p>
<p>For example, I’m a runner. It’d be as if people were like “bike a lot, so you’ll get better at running!” Well, yes, biking helps your overall fitness and pain capacity, but what’s the best and fastest way to get good at running? RUNNING, not biking. </p>
<p>Similarly, what’s the best way to get good at the whole SAT (CR included)? Taking SAT practice tests, not reading difficult literature.</p>
