  I average about -2 on RC. I usually have around five minutes left after bubbling, which is less than on my other sections. One thing that I've started doing is skipping to the last passage and doing it first. I HATE getting to the last passage and feeling rushed, I think it can make me miss questions that I wouldn't otherwise. Of course, you always have the same amount of time regardless of the order in which you do the questions, it's just a mental trick that has helped me to feel less rushed and less exhausted by the amount of reading required.

  I usually have about ten minutes at the end of LR and LG. In RC, I've usually got three to four and happy to have it. I'm a slow reader and I don't fight it. I think reading at a comfortable, natural pace is vital. That amount of time is enough to go back to the one passage that gave you the most trouble and tinker with it a bit more. I don't get to BR the whole thing like LR or LG, but it's enough to pick up a few points on the end to mostly keep me around -2.
