I just did PT140 and there's a HUGE gap between my BR score vs my actual score, more than half the time I'm between two answer choices and end up choosing the wrong one. Does anyone have any advice on closing this gap and selecting better the first time around?

Based on this performance I think your issue maybe fatigue. Your logic is solid, based on your BR. Do you get more anxious or tired by each section?
@MnM Yes I definitely get tired with each section, I especially noticed in the RC the last passage I did I got like 5/6 wrong. I guess it's a matter of practice to build up that stamina
@Chebebe Absolutely, work on that stamina and you're gold.
During BR, do you write down your thoughts on which answers were attractive, why were those attractive, why you didn't pick the right one, etc.? I have been doing that lately and it has been helping me identify my behavior under timed drills. That's another thing that may help you identify what to focus on and what to avoid during timed drills.
For RC specifically, are you doing low-res and MP before moving on to the questions? It only takes a minute more but when I do it, I find answering questions easier and quicker than when I don't. I'm forcing myself to get into the habit of doing low-res and MP before moving to the questions. Just sharing some tips that have been working for me.
You got this! Good luck!
@MnM This is so helpful thanks so much! Good luck to you as well
