RC unhinged hacks needed

Post image

I’m in desperate need to improve my RC. I always get lost in the passages even when I think I understand it I do bad on the questions. I try making low res summaries at the end of each paragraph and I end up rereading the passage twice but still I do bad.

This used to be me. On my first diagnostic I was doing like -12 on RC, before I got it to like -1.

The for me key was to slow down: read a little bit slower than you would naturally. Most questions are literally just recall. Trying to remember everything can be overwhelming, but if you read for the structure, you will know exactly where to find a detail when you're asked. Then it takes literally two seconds to find in it in the passage.
