What this prep section covers:
- Specific abilities tested in CARS
- What the passages and questions look like
- Strategies to use for each passage
- Sample passages and questions to apply chosen strategies
What does the CARS look like?
- 9 reading passages with Qs
- 4-7 Qs per set (passage)
- No stand-alone questions
That means that this section is entirely critical thinking plus reading skills, rather than having outside knowledge.
Students who score well in CARS:
- Utilize reading strategies
- Develop strong reasoning skills through careful practice
- Embrace the “best” answer concept (it might be a grudging “make up with your brother” kind of hug, but embrace away…)
What happens at the end of this section?
After learning the key strategies for CARS, you’ll move into several practice sets broken into manageable groups so you can work through them at your own pace. You can take one set or multiple sets in a row, whatever fits your study flow.
