<p><strong> </strong><strong>Multiplying 5 Times an Odd Number:</strong> <span style="font-weight: normal;">Subtract one from the number you are multiplying, then halve that number and place a 5 after the resulting number.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-weight: normal;"><strong>Example:</strong> 343 * 5 = (343-1)/2 | 5 = 1715</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: normal;"><em><strong>Critical reasoning Concepts:</strong></em></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: 15px; font-weight: bold;">Basic Orientation of Critical Reasoning:</span></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: 15px; font-weight: bold;"><strong> </strong><strong>Intellectual Responsibility:</strong></span></span></strong></p>
<p>Adults are responsible for the things they do, and this includes thinking clearly and carefully about things that matter. This is hard work and no one succeeds at it completely, but it is part of the price for being in charge of your life.</p>
<p>In addition to thinking for ourselves, it is important to think well. This means basing our reasoning on how things are, rather than how we wish they were. It means being open to the possibility that we are mistaken, not allowing blind emotion to cloud our thought, and putting in that extra bit of energy to try to get to the bottom of things.</p>
<p>This doesn't mean that we should constantly be questioning everything. Life is too short and busy for that. But in many cases successful action requires planning and thought. It is also desirable to reflect on our most basic beliefs from time to time, and the college years are an ideal time for this. In the end you may wind up with exactly the same views that you began with. But if you have thought about them carefully, they will be your own views, rather than someone else's.</p>

<p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; list-style-type: none; list-style-position: initial; list-style-image: initial; text-decoration: none; margin: 0px;"><strong>Solution:</strong></p>
<p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; list-style-type: none; list-style-position: initial; list-style-image: initial; text-decoration: none; margin: 0px;"><span style="list-style-type: none; list-style-position: initial; list-style-image: initial; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;">If you did not make any unwarranted assumptions, you probably did not find this to be a hard problem. What makes a problem difficult is not necessarily its underlying complexity; rather a problem is classified as difficult if many people miss it. A problem may be simple yet contain a psychological trap that causes people to answer it incorrectly. The above problem is difficult because many people subconsciously assume that there are only two candidates. They then figure that since the challenger received 49% of the vote the incumbent received 51% of the vote. This would be a valid deduction if C were the only challenger. But we cannot assume that. There may be two or more challengers. Hence, (1) is insufficient.</span></p>
<p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; list-style-type: none; list-style-position: initial; list-style-image: initial; text-decoration: none; margin: 0px;"><span style="list-style-type: none; list-style-position: initial; list-style-image: initial; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;">Now, consider (2) alone. Since Incumbent I received 25,000 of the 100,000 votes cast, I necessarily received 25% of the vote. Hence, the answer to the question is â€˜No, the incumbent did not receive over 50% of the vote.â€™ Therefore, (2) is sufficient to answer the question. The answer is B.</span></p>

<ul>
<li>Take the test as soon as possible so your scores will be received in time to be considered with your application.</li>
<li>Check the GREÂ <a style="color: #003082; background-image: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; -webkit-background-clip: initial; -webkit-background-origin: initial; background-color: transparent; background-position: initial initial;" href="http://www.ets.org/bin/getprogram.cgi?test=gre">online registration system</a> for the most up-to-date test center information.</li>
<li>Not all test centers are open on all dates.</li>
<li>Test centers fill up quickly so early registration is recommended to get your preferred test locations and date selection.</li>
<li>When registering, be sure that the spelling of your name exactly matches the name printed on the identification documents(s) you will present at the test center. If this information does not match, you will not be permitted to test and your test fee will be forfeited. There are no exceptions. SeeÂ <a style="color: #003082; background-image: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; -webkit-background-clip: initial; -webkit-background-origin: initial; background-color: transparent; background-position: initial initial;" href="http://www.ets.org/vgn-ext-templating/v/?vgnextoid=e1452d3631df4010VgnVCM10000022f95190RCRD&amp;vgnextchannel=e58846f1674f4010VgnVCM10000022f95190RCRD">Identification Requirements</a>.</li>
<li>You are not allowed to transfer your registration to someone else.</li>
<li>As part of your test fee, you may request that scores be sent to as many as four graduate institutions or fellowship sponsors. You will be asked to designate your score recipients either when registering for the test or at the test center on test day.</li>
<li>Late registration is available if youÂ <a style="color: #003082; background-image: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; -webkit-background-clip: initial; -webkit-background-origin: initial; background-color: transparent; background-position: initial initial;" href="http://www.ets.org/bin/getprogram.cgi?test=gre">register online</a>. Late registration closes one week after the regular registration date. The fee is $25.</li>
<li>You will be given the option to register for the GRE Search Service on the day of your computer-based GRE General Test or when you register for the paper-based General Test. The GRE Search Service matches prospective graduate students with participating graduate schools and fellowship sponsors. For more information, visitÂ <a style="color: #003082; background-image: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; -webkit-background-clip: initial; -webkit-background-origin: initial; background-color: transparent; background-position: initial initial;" href="http://www.ets.org/gre/stusearch">www.ets.org/gre/stusearch</a>.</li>
<li>Beginning in July 2009, you will have access to a new service, the ETSÂ® Personal Potential Index (ETSÂ® PPI). The ETS PPI provides an evaluation of six personal attributes that graduate and professional schools have indicated are critical for academic success. Individuals who register for the GRE General Test will be able to request that ETS PPI Evaluation Reports be sent to as many as four graduate institutions or fellowship sponsors.

<ul>
<li>It may be to your advantage to take the GREÂ® General Test more than once if you think that the scores you obtained do not reflect your true abilities. If your scores seem unusually low in comparison with other indicators of your preparedness for graduate studies, you may want to consider taking the test again. Those considering repeating a test should be aware that large score increases are unusual, and for some test takers scores will go down. Keep in mind that score reports will include test results obtained within the past five-year period.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>You may take the General Test (computer-based and/or paper-based) only once per calendar month and no more than 5 times within any 12-month period. This applies even if you canceled your scores on a test taken previously.</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">SPEED READING</span><br />
We live in the age of information, and we must read extensively if we intend to be successful in our studies, or careers. Schools and colleges have discovered that courses in reading skills give enormous aid to students struggling under the heavier loads of todayâ€™s scholastic programs. Young men and women trained in speed reading show distinct advantages over those who lack this kind of skill.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">How Fast You Can Be? </span><br />
Reading speed has no known theoretical limit. A speed of between 800 and 1200 words per minute (wpm) can comfortably be reached by permanent speed readers, without any constant practice and drilling. Reading speed varies according to the complexity of the reading material, type, face, print quality, grammar, style etc.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">How Much Time It Will Take?</span><br />
When you participate in a speed reading courses online, or read the book, you will find your reading skills increasing from the very start. With serious application, you will soon be speed reading with ease, and astonished at how much you comprehend in such little time.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Obstacles to Speed Reading</span><br />
1. Reading phrases more than once.<br />
2. Wondering mind and straying thoughts<br />
3. Anxiety about missing a critical â€œnotâ€ or other conjunctive structure<br />
4. Outside anxiety or stressors like job, home, family, etc.<br />
FireUp provides you a solution to overcome all these problems and helps you to enhance your speed in reading comprehensions.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">General Speed Reading Gyan</span></p>
<p>Concentration: You can learn anything if you pay attention!</p>
<p>Enjoy Reading: No matter whether you are reading technical material fun is the most important ingredient in a successful reading experience.</p>
<p>Preview the chapter: you will organize your mind before you begin to read, build a structure for the thoughts and details to come, you will be able to sort, understand and remember the information better.</p>
<p>Question: Read each section of the chapter with your questions in mind. Look for the answers, and take note of questions you didn't think of that were answered in that section</p>
<p>Eye Stops: Read in phrases of three or four words - meaning is easier to pull from groups of words rather than from individual words.</p>
<p>Varying Reading Rates: Vary your reading rate to suit the difficulty and type of writing of the text. An efficient reader speeds up for easier material and slows down for the hard.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Skimming</span><br />
Skimming is a high speed reading process and involves visually searching the sentences of a page for clues to meaning.<br />
There are many strategies that can be used when skimming. Some of them are<br />
1. Read the first and last paragraphs<br />
2. Read the title, subtitles, subheading, and illustrations.<br />
3. Read the first sentence of each paragraph. This technique is useful when you're seeking specific information rather than reading for comprehension.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Skimming on computer is slower</span><br />
The reading speed and comprehension is the same for the computer screen and paper. However, according to a research skimming on a computer is 41% slower than on paper.<br />
So prepare online to get a better edge for CAT 09.<br />
So get up, gear up and fire up so start preparing for CATâ€™09 today, just log into FireUp for more info on CAT, Quant, DI, DS and RC.</p>
