Does any one of you guys know how to do better on SAT critical reading? SAT verbal is not just about vocabulary knowledge.

It helps to read a lot, especially challenging classic literature, and perhaps periodicals such as Time (the latter would be especially helpful because the articles may not be very interesting to you, and therefore more work to follow - just like SAT reading comprehension passages).

The key, however, is to practice diligently. Do as many verbal practice questions as you can. I would recommend 10 Real LSATs for full practice tests and Princeton Review's Verbal Workout book for the many practice questions it contains.
