Questions that go something like this
"Which of the following is best supported by the passage" or "Based on the passage it is reasonable to assume".

Please dont confuse it with "which of the following is directly supported by the passage"

as the former is not really in the passage you have to make assumption to get it correct by the use of tone and bottom line

Princeton Review refers to these as specific inference. These are my only problem as I get them correct only 50 percent of the time

Any help?

EDIT: crap sorry posted in the wrong forum, I thought I was posting in the MCAT section, if someone could move it would be great
 
First off, this should be in the MCAT forum.

I'm alittle rusty MCAT-wise, but I believe the trick was to find the answer that was the most supported by the passage. This means taking as little a logical leap as possible from the info you have. Think along those lines.

I know I put the edit in my post before your post.
