Cracking on Comparative Passages?

lil2015 · September 2015

Hey buddies! I feel much progress on RC with the Trainer’s structural method. But still I feel so hard on comparative reading. It’s so confusing to recall structures/details from two passages. Anyone has a thought to crack on that?

Thanks in advance!

One strategy I use is to read proactively. Lots of sections have a paragraph where they identify a whole bunch of small details right in a row: think movies or book examples cited in support of a thesis in a diversity/humanities passage, or the results of several experiments in a science passage. You can start to tell that the details are thrown in purely for information recall, so you want to use your roadmap when you mark the passage to recall and contrast details enumerated in this section.

Howdy, Stranger!
