We had the definitive guide to Rc But I have to redo again so we put on hold for a moment

However, the link I provided you, in concrete, is you should address any kind of RC.

The strategy is always the same: read, understand, create a TOC, get always the main idea, pinpoint where important details are and screw the rest, answer the questions from to to the bottom thanks you TOC.

Straight. In a nutshell, this is the strategy that every prep company or book will teach you


This is also what Marty teaches here



The formula is always the same

Thanks. I will look into it. I particularly do not understand the differences of sentences to be considered assumption, conclusion, supporting a conclusion, evidence etc. Also what factors determine main idea?

From your question, it looks like more CR than RC

The stem are these

The main idea must be addressed using not a particular strategy but your feeling of the same. This specific question pertains to the left side of the thinking spectrum. The questions on the left extreme of the spectrum (main idea and so on) are IMPOSSIBLE to solve with formal logic and/or rules. Those on the right extreme of the spectrum will be misled by using real-world thinking on these question types
