Help w/ LR 4-5 Star Questions

Hello everyone. I was hoping someone could help me improve LR which is my weakest section. I just recently finished a PT and got -0 in LG, -7 in RC, but -20+ combined from the 2 sections of LR. After reviewing the questions, I noticed most of the LR questions I’m getting wrong are only 4-5 star difficulty questions. The type of questions I got wrong are all over the place so the issue doesn’t seem to be exactly the type of question but rather the difficulty level that’s tripping me up. Should I create drills to only do 4-5 star difficulty questions or is there a different way to approach this? Should I be doing drills timed or untimed until I can consistently get the answers right? I’m really not sure where to go from here or how to take on these questions which are easily the biggest factor in my scores right now.

    Depends on a lot of factors! If you’ve been studying for a while, definitely continue to do practice timed. I’d create a timed drill with only 4-5 star difficulty questions. You also might be getting into your own head—your brain will read a 4-5 star question and already “count yourself out”, so to speak.

    Hi!

    I think that going through the core curriculum on LR can help with this if you haven’t already tried doing so. I found that familiarizing myself with the question types and their respective processes towards the correct answer was infinitely helpful.
