Of all the sections I feel like RC is the one that would benefit from a tutor the least. I began with -18 in May and I am now at -2/-3. I felt the same way as you did until I started printing two passages a day and really analyzing them, after that …
I say take the time off,keeping in mind that for a high score sacrificing social life is a must. This test is not something you can just take a look at here and there, it's a full time priority so take the time off but come up with a study schedule …
the way I see it is, this is common sense stuff and I have common sense so I don't give up until I get it . I DO whatever it is to make sure that I get where I need to get , this test can't beat me period .

This is an amazing jump in such a short time! Great job! I went from a 148 diagnostic to a 163 practice test, but when I took the June Flex I ran out of time on Games and ended up guessing on the last two games which resulted i…

Hi @Cynthia-2, thank you for sharing! Keep it up!! I was wondering if you have worked through the entire core curriculum yet in the month and a half you have studied?
Hey,
Frankly, I haven't , I have been going over only…
I say retake, I didn't hit the yes on the poll because I disagree that t you wouldn't get in anywhere, you would. If you're looking for money, that's another situation,I don't know if they would with your score.

Hi Cynthia, can you explain what you mean by doing a group of 10 LGs daily? Do you do each only once, or do you repeat each one in one sitting until you memorize it? Meaning, you’ll do each one of those 10….say a couple of ti…
Take a stack of ten games and do them over and over and over again daily until mastery, then take ten more and do o the same. repeat them so much that you'll be able to do them in your sleep. I went from missing 9 a month ago, to consistently -0 doi…

Pop off Cynthia!
edit: also, how'd improve your RC?
Lol , thank you ! I watch videos after every preptest I make on the passages. I also do two daily, meticulously going through all answer choices until I understand why the…
Thanks Xavier, here is my study schedule. I study about 4 to 5 hours a day.
1-I have a binder where I print all LR questions that I have ever gotten wrong on previous tests and I look at them daily. By this I mean, before I do any studying I skim t…

Hi Cynthia, thanks for the question. I suppose that is an option as well. I think my only concern is that the October date would not give me enough time to make the improvements that I need to make. Given that my PT average…
You're referring to finding the meaning of a word in RC passage right? I am also getting those right more often than not. If anyone knows, please share.
Hello, good job with LR and LG, that's impressive! As for RC, at the beginning of June I was missing anywhere from 10 to as high as 15. Honestly, I just started to watch the explanation videos after every passage and my score has come down to a cons…
What has helped me with RC, I have improved dramatically just in the past month by doing one thing, and that is by actively reading. What I mean is, as I am reading I pretend to be interested, alot of the reading is boring and natutally our brains w…
