Congrats on the BR score! I agree with others that, based on what you've shared, this is a timing/pressure problem and not a content problem. I tend to have this issue a lot for LR sections myself, so I know what you're going through. It sounds counter-intuitive, but I have actually found that slowing myself down helps improve my overall timing. When you're rushing because you're worried about overall section time, you often have to re-read things multiple times and you struggle to make connections between the stimulus and the answers. Slowing down can prevent re-reads and misunderstandings. In trying to implement this strategy (though it's really a mindset), I've gone from consistently running out of time for the final 4+ questions each LR section to having several minutes left to review a couple of questions that I flagged. Good luck!
