The low-res summary helps a ton, but boy, is it hard to do during practice sections. Does anyone have any tips? I find talking out loud is helpful, but I know I won't be able to do that during the actual test.

Hello! It is definitely hard to write a full low-res summary during practice sections; you don't want to waste valuable time writing it all down. You are correct that you won't be able to talk out loud during the real exam, but you can at least mumble to yourself quietly enough that others can't hear.
Alternatively, you can write down just a single word or abbreviation per paragraph on your scratch paper. That is what I did sometimes; I focused on the structural purpose of each paragraph and just wrote down something like: 'AP' (Author's Perspective), 'OP' (Other's Perspective), or 'I' (Illustration). This didn't take much time at all but still allowed me to easily recall the roadmap of the passage.
I hope this helps, and best of luck!
