Jealous about the RC score! What's your secret?
I didn't really have a strategy. I went -4 on the diagnostic for RC, but towards the end of my studying I found myself hovering around -7. The only new thing I adopted for RC was with comparative passages. During the December exam because I worked through the first passage so quickly, I had plenty of time to use the 'new' 7sage approach to comparative passages.
I don't think my general approach to RC is good for most people to adopt the week before the exam, but the main points are:
* Read quickly
* Minimal note taking. I have some problems with my handwriting, so it's important for me to avoid unnecessary writing. At most I'll circle a word or bracket or a sentence that I think is crucial or confusing.
* For the majority of questions, I'll look at all the ACs. In LR I do the opposite, but with the newer RC I didn't find ACs popping out as much.
