8/11 & 10/11. For the first passage, I started reading and realized half way through I didn't do anything I was supposed to... just started reading the passage for "fun". Then had to pause and rewind to try the given technique. I did so (or tried to at least) for P2, which was the passage I got all my wrong answers for. I definitely need to practice this stuff!
AND I realized when I read Substack articles in the morning with my coffee, I should practice getting into the habit of low res summaries because I'm used to reading so mindlessly.
Got to get in more practice. I skimmed over parts that, had I caught the one or two words, it would've triggered the right answer. Got to love how humbling these are.
@NathanW Saaaame. I got tripped up on the second to last question because I just wasn't reading the answer choices thoroughly. Fully missed a word that made the correct answer choice obvious. I've gotta slow down!
I'm finding it difficult to just turn off my understanding of the previous passage and jump immediately into trying to understand a completely different topic. Did really well in the first, and just struggled to concentrate throughout the second passage
@epayne17 Ha! During the second passage I literally caught myself thinking "wait a minute, I've already forgotten about the first passage ... what was it about?" Not helpful, brain. Not helpful.
6/13...yikes! And i know what i'm doing - i'm skimming the passage. I'm applying the same technique that I used with work/life. I'm reading...then it's a yada yada yada, then go to the questions. Going to back to reviewing the correct answers and their analysis, it's embarrassing because HAD I READ THE DAMN THING, I would have gotten it right.

7/11! not bad! I was MAD struggling before the foundations. 6 min over time but the time will hopefully go down with more practice!

8/14 & 13/14 BR, not bad
8/13.. not bad i guess
8/13 i will take this win
12/13 LETS GO. Time on passages needs to be quicker but that will come with practice ;)
How do I read faster? Feel like there's no amount of practice that can change that I'm a slow reader. Always have been. RIP my LSAT score I guess :(
