It is very difficult to get above 170 if your BR score is below 170. BR 170 is definitely the Necessary Condition for getting 170. Just like @Pacifico said.
Thank you, I reread the Reading Comp section in the Trainer and it mentions the same strategy. @Pacifico. I will try to read the magazines you recommended. The subscriptions are just costly. Any student discounts?
I found student subscriptions @Pacifico. I guess I'll start with the New Yorker. I usually read The atlantic and Huffington Post. Hopefully I will familiarize myself with new vocabulary. Thanks again!
I keep a spreadsheet of: date taken, PT#, time, score, and comments. I've done over 200 game sections during my practice. I score -0 to -1 consistently and finish most game sections in 30 min or less.
@StopLawying What pacifico said. I finished the course a week ago and have been doing nothing but logic games since. It's only been a week but I'm seeing improvement.
