First of all, the skills of allocating time.
The score of the comprehensive reasoning part depends on the number of questions you answer, and these questions are composed of many parts. In order to get the score of this question, you must answer every part of the question correctly.
If you answer only one small question correctly, you won't get the rest of the score. If you don't know how to answer the remaining questions, maybe you can guess an answer and move on to the next question. It is not a good strategy to spend too much time on any problem.
Second, be familiar with the questions
Many candidates do not do well in comprehensive reasoning, in fact, mainly because they are unfamiliar with the topic. In the eyes of candidates who haven't taken the exam, they may find the question of comprehensive reasoning very strange. Reading is not like reading, and mathematics is not like mathematics.
Candidates who take the GMAT exam must be familiar with four kinds of questions if they want to do comprehensive reasoning, at least know how each question is worked out, what are the basic problem-solving steps, and so on. If you despise comprehensive reasoning, you can't even understand the basic questions, and it is difficult to get high marks.
Third, don't rely on calculators.
In the GMAT exam, only the comprehensive reasoning part has a calculator, but the math part doesn't. It is easy for candidates to have an illusion that the calculation of comprehensive reasoning is very large.
If GMAT mathematics examines the various mathematical problem-solving skills of candidates, then comprehensive reasoning examines the ability of candidates to accurately locate effective data when facing massive data.
Moreover, because a lot of data in comprehensive reasoning may not be sorted well, a calculator is provided for candidates to assist in operation.
Therefore, the first thing to do is to find out the key data needed to solve the problem quickly, and don't rely too much on the calculator.
Fourth, make good use of exclusion method.
There are still quite a few multiple-choice questions in comprehensive reasoning. In the face of multiple-choice questions, candidates can effectively eliminate the wrong options and narrow the selection target by calculation.
If you don't give a complete answer because of lack of time, the elimination method can help you narrow down the choice and improve the success rate of guessing questions.
