Hello, I have been struggling with my timing and accuracy on reading comp.
When I move slow throughout the questions and passage, I tend to do much better with the questions (obviously). I will usually get all the questions right for easier - medium passages/questions, and only 1 wrong for harder passages.
My biggest problem however is that is takes me awhile, and usually in the 35 minutes I can only get through 3 of the passages. I have attempted speeding up my reading / time in questions to reach all 4 passages but my accuracy in questions severely drops in where I may get 2-3+ wrong per passage.
I have gotten much better at low res summaries, and I find that method helpful especially for structure questions.
What is the best way to speed up while maintaining accuracy? I have read previous discussion forums in where people only focus on the 3 passages and leaving the 4th passage for guesses. I have experimented with this method and i usually do way better in terms of accuracy (getting around 18-20 correct, vs 12 - 15 correct). I do recognize I sometimes waste time by checking answers in the passage when I am fairly confident in my memory however, I can't seem to trust it (as every now and then I check to find out my memory was wrong).
Any help / recommendations is recommended, thanks!
Which is the lesson where JY explains splitting the arrows when having "and" in the necessary? Need to review it! Thank you .
How does JY run the contrapositive on chains so quickly/accurately in his head? what is the best way to get good at it?
I keep need to telling myself Necessary Failed so rule triggers and so on... any advice would be great. Thanks
Should I be going by the target time JY says in the video or the target time under the game (for LG)? Thanks, let me know!
On the conditional indicator drill made by the student, the logical indicator "will" appear and the rule say's it indicates a necessary term.
"Will" however, is not on the "4 Translation Group Cheatsheet". It also confuses me because on the basic translation group 2 flashcards an example is "only a GPS will reveal where you are" .... the answer indicates that in lawgic it reads:
a --> GPS and /GPS --> /a.
I do realize that the LI "only" is also in that sentence, however the term "will" is now tripping me up and I do not know to include it in my Group 2 Logical Indicator or not. Please help! :)
I definitely don't average 3 minutes per passage, it is more like 5 minutes per passage.
