Do you think you can cover an RC section? I have been trying to get my score up for 7 months, and seem to be hitting -10 to -15 (depends on how bad the passages are). Nothing seems to really help me :(
Hey @jkjohnson1991823 I am thinking of doing an RC passage next week! :smile:

I have notes from the 12/8 office hours if anyone wants them.
THANKS :smile:

Hey Tina, there will no recording of these sessions. They are all live.
If I’m not able to make it, is there a recording?
Awesome! I cannot attend the mid December ones (out of town), are you offering them later in December? I would love to hop onto these. Aiming for the February exam.

@khanumshazia3803 for Nov 24th, which section of LR do we do from PT40? Or should we do both sections of LR?
Hey! I am sorry for not specifying that. It's the first LR section -section 1.
@khanumshazia3803 for Nov 24th, which section of LR do we do from PT40? Or should we do both sections of LR?
I wasn't able to make it tonight :( can someone please summarize some key points?

@khanumshazia3803 How do these tutoring sessions work?
Thanks!
Depending on what I am doing in a particular session, there may or may not be a particular requirement. For the upcoming one there isn't. During the session I pick a student who volunteers, and then I work with that student on that particular paragraph or question. Each time I go to another paragraph or question, I ask for another volunteer. The pace of the session depends on where each student is. I hope this helped. : )
