I like to read RC problems like the author is having a conversation with me.
So, if the passage listed a bunch of facts and suddenly you see a reason/hypothesis that doesn't have a source (ex: Scientists say _, Zanotto calculates), it's most likely the author's opinion. This is specifically for phen-hypo questions, but I use a similar strategy for other questions!
Fantastic advice - I've been doing the same! Framing the passage as the author speaking to me def. helps me identify when the author is talking. For other passage styles, I think it just requires more exposure and practice.

lol this feels like an angry tangent from the author as to why glass doesn't flow downwards
@AliaAli Bro is like "IT'S TOO THICK STOP SAYING IT FLOWS DOWNWARDS"
@AliaAli he even found a Brazilian dude to corroborate his anger for ppl who say it flows downwards XD
no idea what I can do with these info, except answering the LSAT questions
1:27 MM flip it around, Wicked Witch...
This passage was such a difficult read lol
@lrey256377 it was more engaging honestly
What is the best way to figure out that the author has stepped in?
