Critical Reasoning challenges logical thinking. Critical thinking items present an argument that the test taker is asked to analyze. Questions may ask test takers to draw a conclusion, to identify assumptions, or to recognize strengths or weaknesses in the argument. It presents brief statements or arguments and asks to evaluate the form or content of the statement or argument. Questions of this type ask the examinee to analyze and evaluate the reasoning in short paragraphs or passages. For some questions, all of the answer choices may conceivably be answers to the question asked. The examinee should select the best answer to the question, that is, an answer that does not require making assumptions that violate common sense standards by being implausible, redundant, irrelevant, or inconsistent.

LSAT logical reasoning is similar to GMAT critical reasoning,and the general consensus is that LSAT reasoning questions may be a bit more difficult. But I would only recommend studying the LSAT to prepare for the GMAT if you have several months before you exam date. Otherwise you’re best best is to stick with GMAT CR to practice under conditions as similar to the actual exam as possible.
