<p>I'm sick and tired of people saying that find patterns on the Critical Reading Questions and then use them throughout the whole test. I don't understand what the pattern is till this day i have never been able to find any patterns in the questions.</p>
<p>Can someone please help me find these patters, tell me exactly what they are and how to eliminate wrong answer choices?????????</p>
<p>hmmm im curious as well</p>
<p>bump for u :)</p>
<p>There are no "patterns." The test is designed to avoid patterns. If any real "patterns" are discovered, the test developers are some of the first people to know, and they'll avoid them on future tests.</p>
<p>don't try to find patterns.
they aren't there.</p>
<p>very disgruntled, but the pattern will only appear with the wrong answers, such as u can definitely eliminate 3 choices and the last two ones, one should make more sense than the other. PICK UP THAT CHOICES, NO WAY U CAN GO WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>does any one agree that there's a pattern for the questions in the long paired passages? I realised that,most times, the first few questions are specifically about the first passage and the others compare the two passages. I hope that helps</p>
<p>When I refer to patterns, I mean the general types of questions. Sure, no one can predict that there will be X comparisons and Y word-in-context questions, but I think a big part of doing well on the test is being comfortable with the format and scope of the questions.</p>
<p>that's why practice tests help.
and did anyone understand collegefreaks post???</p>
<p>He's basically saying use POE</p>
