Here's a link on reddit that I think might be helpful if you'd like more information:

Wrong answer journal on your wrong questions. It seems like something trivial but I was able to pinpoint issues I was repeatedly making in LR and properly fix them and now I go -1 to -2 in LRs. I did the following columns for my wrong answer journal:

Stimulus

Question Type

Wrong Answer Chosen (Why you picked it? Why did you think it was correct?)

Correct AC (why is it better? what was the incorrect AC missing in comparison)

Also make sure to drill question types you get wrong often in LR. I worked extremely hard on LR and would be happy to give tips on it.

I don't have any tips for LG. Im a science student so that one came naturally for me.

For RC, I read a book and it literally said read and comprehend and I know that sounds insane but I learned that majority of RC passages aren't relevant to the questions and you have to learn how to pick out the information that will be important because it helps you read faster while disregarding the "fluff" of the passage. Keep track of the POVs in the passages. Try to keep very short summary (like 5 words) of each paragraph in your head. e.g "Opponents- lack of clarity" or something like that so you just have an idea of where to search for things if necessary.

Some people ( I haven't done these methods) have mentioned doing the passage with the most questions first and I read a person on this site mentioned that they skip the comparative reading to maximize points in the other passages and return to comparative reading with whatever time they have left; if they run out they just pick one letter for everything in comparative reading. I haven't done that either. But try a method and see what works best for you.

Hope this helps!
