Critical Thinking

Critical thinking is more than just thinking. You have to think about many different things. It's much more important than just regular thinking. thinking is just talking to yourself silently. Critical thinking means you have to take many things into consideration.

For example; Let's say you want to go to college, but you don't know where to go, so you think about where you want to go. But choosing a college is much more important than that. You need to take a lot of things into consideration such as; Tuition. You need to figure out if you can afford it or if it offers any scholarships. You also need to take the location into consideration. Maybe you want to go one thousand miles away or maybe you want to stay within one hundred miles from home. Does the college you are applying to offer a major that you want? Does the college have all the extra curricular activites that you want? Do you have to live on campus the first year? You have to ask yourself many questions before you come up with the decision you are going to make. These are all things you need to think about. You need to evaluate all the information you have and apply it to what you want.

Critical Thinking is much more complex than regular thinking. It is thinking in depth about something. It's the most important thing in order to make the right decisions.
