As for getting into the 160s its taken me about 5 months now with on and off full-time studying. My saving grace has been LG which I picked up rather quickly. RC and LR have been quite the struggle but again I suggest breaking down the concepts to the basics then working up to timing yourself.
Best of luck!
As for improving RC I will say go back to the basics and break it down. About 5-6 weeks ago I was averaging around -10, then -8, and now I've done my very best on an RC section at -5. I'd suggest doing sections untimed and breaking it all down. Like really actually consider the various perspectives, viewpoints, main points, and arguments. Take time to consider all of that and most importantly practice! Eventually, you become accustomed to the questions you're seeing. Lastly, I'd suggest leisurely reading. I've been going to apple news whenever I have free time and just read articles I was interested in. This has definitely increased my speed and comprehension.
Honestly, I've learned to take this journey just as I would fitness. Listen to your body if you've dedicated this much time to this exam I promise you one day off won't be the end of you LOL (even though it definitely feels like it)! I've found that occupying my time by doing other things has definitely been helpful but it is all about balance as well. There are some days you just won't be feeling it and that is OKAY!
