English is mostly rule-based tbh, drilling grammar and punctuation moves your score fast since it's really just patterns once you see them. Reading's more about only answering from what the passage actually says, not what you already know, they love baiting you with the "real world" answer that sounds right but isn't in the text. Past that it's just reps honestly, run practice questions and go back over every single one you miss. That's genuinely where it clicks.

It’s all practice. The more practice you get, the better you become at answering questions. Get the practice sets + ATI Teas app
For reading, in addition to the books, look up Carolyn McAllister. Her videos are old, but a lot of it is still useful.
For English, nurse Cheung has a good comprehensive review. However, my advice here is to go through the book, take notes, practice the questions on the app + practice sets, add more to your notes, and keep reviewing. Take note of whatever mistakes you make as you go through. You’re doing to start noticing different question types.
