When it comes to RC, you should always have a plan! This class will focus on the fundamental strategies you can rely on when tackling even the most complex passages. Learn how to effectively track speakers and viewpoints, understand underlying structure, and pinpoint the essential points for your low-res summaries. Students will be given 10 minutes to read a passage and write low-res summaries. The instructor will then break down the passage and review low res summaries. Then the class works through each question, reading the stem as a class and prephrasing (predicting) answers before each student selects their own answer from a poll.
Difficulty: 4-5 Star
Pace: 1 Passage

About the instructor
Instructor
Katie graduated from the University of Pennsylvania and is starting at Penn Carey Law this fall. She has taught standardized tests for six years, including the LSAT for the past two.
Katie believes the best way to improve is to approach the test methodically: develop structured strategies for each question type, recognize common patterns, and find efficient shortcuts along the way. As a visual learner, she both teaches with and recommends visual tools, such as diagramming or drawing pictures, to organize and understand information—methods she used to succeed on her own test.
In her free time, Katie enjoys playing soccer, trying new restaurants, and playing video games.
