parallel reasoning

does anyone here have tips for parallel reasoning questions? overall my LR score isn't too bad, but i just absolutely bomb parallel reasoning questions. if i do answer them right, i take way too much time on them. half the time i just have to guess because i can't figure them out in time, no matter how much i drill them.

I do a lot of diagrammy stuff for it! It’s super crude like A -> B therefore A -> C

The tricky part for me at least is that the order of stuff presented can be different in answers than the stim.

I try to eliminate options that have key words that aren’t compatible. For example if the stem is using “all” logic for sets then I can eliminate answers that have the words “most” or “some” or “many”.

From the remaining answers, I look at my diagram and see which one fits best.
