Really Struggling with Reading Comprehension

yeasm22s · April 2021

Hi all! I am really struggling with RC and am missing 5 to 10 questions in the section and need to strategize better. Does any one have any recommendations for improving? There was a very comprehensive post made by someone on RC strategies a few months ago but I cant find it. I mostly struggle with hard art history passages, and then science passages but usually the questions in the science passages are easier even when the passage might be harder to read. Do you recommend using any additional resources? and if you have used additional resources then when did you start seeing improvement? how long did you work on the RC section before seeing any improvement? any advice or suggestions will be really helpful!!

if you low-res summarize, you will slow down at first, but then with practice you'll get a lot correct. I read a news article each day, pausing to summarize each paragraph, to make sure I get extra RC practice in.

This is probably the very compressive post you're referring to:

I definitely recommend giving the post a thorough read through along with comments and replies to them as well.
