Tanking the LR section - Help!

Is anyone who's doing well on the logic reasoning section able to offer some free tutoring. Im totally tanking this section consistently and I'm super frustrated. The videos are just not helping.

So i was torn between B and E but I kept rereading the last sentence incorrectly. I missed FAR LESS - I was misreading this! I need to pay attention to EVERY word!

Thank you all!These are really good tips. I did in fact purchase the Loophole and started reading it.

First, make sure you don't get bogged down in strategies. Before anything else, you need to have clear conception of what the stimulus is telling you and what the question stem is asking. Now, about the strategies. It's much easier to recount things in categories. So, I found writing out the different question types and understanding strategies as a subcategory was helpful. Also, grouping question types together can be helpful. For example, necessary assumption and sufficient assumption; weaken and strengthen; or point of agreement/disagreement. Lastly, when you do LR sections, DO NOT read the question stem first. Practice reading the stimulus carefully and attempting to recount the question type before you look at the question stem. When you read a flaw stimulus, you will ideally recognize a flaw BEFORE you get to the question stem. I hope this helps and feel free to reach out for more clarification!

I really liked this thought here - one of my struggles is trying to remember all of the tricks for the different question stems. It really throws me off my game because I get bogged down in trying to remember the best approach to the question stem.

Are you not allowed to read to yourself. It often helps me understand the passage when i read aloud?

Is there a reason why you all have not offered ways to do this live? It would be more beneficial hearing these responses in real time than going back and reading a post. This is great way to continue to develop your connection with your subscribers.
