Hi everyone,
I'm aiming for a 170 score and finding that my RC score will fluctuate from -0 to -4 / section and I'm trying to get that down/ or at least to something that is consistent
I'm wondering if anyone has had success in changing up the order of how they approach which passage first, second, third, fourth in RC
In LR the questions are automatically easy - hard (besides 18-25 which I usually do backwards once i hit 19)
For RC I've been doing humanities first, then law, then science, and then comparative - I can usually get all comparative right even if I only have 4-5 minutes, so I save it for last bc I know I can rush through it and still be able to guess right
What I've noticed though is I am scoring -2 or -3 on humanities passages even though I do in fact find those easier than law and science. I'm guessing that the reason is because I'm starting with it and I always do better as I go/ get into the zone/ and having easy --> hard in LR helps keep down the curve of error for me there (best LR section score so far: -1!!)
I'm wondering if people would suggest that I start with comparative and then humanities, then law then science? The problem is that I tried that yesterday and wound up not having enough time w science (prob bc I spent almost 7 minutes on comparative which is more than I usually give it -- and I needed those two minutes for science). I did get all the humanities right by doing it second (my order was: comp, humanities, law, science) but I feel like I sacrificed science points to get more humanities points.
I do think that having some strategy about the order in which I do passages could help and I'm curious if anyone has had similar thoughts/ experience could advise how it might be smarted to play around with this?
Thank you! Good luck studying!
