@MV Lol yes I feel that. I got better with implied questions with low res because I would understand the meaning better. For all questions in general though, I try to aggressively eliminate answer choices that talk beyond the scope of the passage. Like if I find a word that is wrong in the answer choice, I am eliminating. Between trap answers, I won’t lie, I don’t always know why one is wrong but if I know the other one is more right, I pick based on that. It takes so much practice and I truly find it harder than LR because there’s less pattern recognition. I am sorry, I wish I was more help but keep practicing! We got this :)

I’ve been in the same position. Deliberately forcing myself to low res is single handedly the only thing that helps me with all passages but especially harder passages. I was noticing a pattern where I would barely get questions wrong on level 2-3 passages and then completely tank on the harder passages. I would start with writing low res summaries down. Go back to the passages you’ve done that maybe you didn’t do so well on and focus on low res. Focus on seeing if you can break down the passage structure more than the questions. Then you can look at the questions again if you want. I know the time panic is a factor and eventually you’ll have to low res in your mind instead of writing it down but this will give you data on what to look for in the passages. Good luck!!!

You might have to slowly build up the stamina. Do a 10 question drill in 18 minutes. Reduce time or increase difficulty as you see score improvement. Build up to more questions. Take the section but maybe give yourself 45 minutes instead of 35. I wouldn’t do it untimed for too long though. Slight time pressure might ease you into it. That’s what I’ve had to do as well. Good luck!! :)

I understand that it does not explicitly talk about "importance" of storytelling, making answer D wrong. But answer choice C seems too broad in my opinion. Aren't we not supposed to generalize based on one specific topic being talked about, aka storytelling?
