Section 3 : Critical Reasoning :
o A sentence (argumentative) generally has 4 parts:
A Background : that which provides context to allow us to
understand the basic situation. An argument generally contains a
background, but it may also not have one.
A Premise : A premise is information used by the author to support
some claim or conclusion. All arguments contain atleast one
premise.
Counter point / Counter premise : Some arguments contain a
counterpoint or counterpremise a piece of information that goes
against the author s conclusion.
Conclustion : Most (though not all) arguments contain a conclusion,
the primary claim the author is trying to prove.

AWA :

The GMAT begins with its most open-ended task: the Analytical
Writing Assessment (AWA), also known as the Argument Essay, or
just the essay.
This section of the GMAT consists of one 30-minute essay that you
type into the computer. In this essay, youll examine a flawed
argument.
The essay is separately scored it does not factor into your general
GMAT score (200-800). The scale runs from 0 (lowest) to 6 (highest)
in half-point increments. Youll be assessed on two sets of skills:
1. Logical analysis: how well do you dissect and
evaluate the argument?
2. Persuasive writing: how clearly and convincingly do
you express your thoughts?
