Hi so my main problem is timing for LR. How can I decrease my time without sacrificing accuracy. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hello, I would first recommend trying to get through the first 10 questions in 10 minutes or less. Set up drills with old LR questions and practice that. Next I would recommend skipping the questions that are giving you trouble under timed conditions and then come back to them once you have see all the other questions. Then I would look at old question in LR that you got wrong and try and figure out 'why' you got it wrong, look for a pattern in the wrong answer choices(there normally is one) and practice the weakness you find. Working on the weaknesses you find will help you be aware of them and that'll help you not repeat the mistakes and improve accuracy and your confidence and thus speed. depending where you at compared to your goal score I would drill the questions that give you trouble and then break them down and identify the premise, conclusion, and why each answer choice is wrong and why the correct one is right, this really helped me learn LR, by picking apart each question and you'll also see patterns develop in the questions.
