Are RC Missed Question Journals Useful?

Matt Sorr

For those of you that keep an RC missed questions journal: Do you find it useful? For those of you that don't: Is there a reason you don't? I've studied RC the least of any section and I'm wondering whether or not I should journal missed questions like I do with LR.

They are harder to use since you need to reread the entire passage to be able to answer questions, but if it is your weakest section, then I definitely recommend it. I have seen steady score increases from drilling and putting wrong answers in my RC journal.

I think it can be quite helpful! As the previous comment said, there's a bit of a higher barrier to entry since you might need to reread an entire passage to do a question, but that's also somewhat of a feature and not a bug; it forces you to redo old passages and build speed in your reading. I also think that even if you don't review it often, the process of adding it into the journal can still be super helpful.

@AlexgLSAT @RaphaelP both of your responses make a lot of sense! I appreciate the added perspectives. I’ll definitely keep one. Thank y’all!
