@skrishnan said: Hi, Amongst all sections, LG is probably my weakest. It takes me way too much time. Which is a better way to go through the CC ( I started with LG about a week ago) Doing the questions and PS's of each questio…

I tend to skip an average of 4 questions when I do 25 in 25. I just try to put eyes on 25 in the first 25 minutes. I'm not sure I understand what the second part of your question is asking specifically?

@StellaBlue said: @"Alex Divine" wow! thank you for the suggestion, that seems to make sense. Absolutely! I can't guarantee it is going to work, but I had the same dramatic drop with RC when I took a couple of the newer PTs. This seems to ha…

@tanes256 said: Hey, guys! I would like any advice you guys can give on splitting boards. I seem to always spend too much time trying to split and it's not really needed or I don't spend enough time trying to split and I could've saved time. I…

@uhinberg said: @StellaBlue said: Hi friends, Wondering if anyone else is having a similar problem: I was scoring -0 or -1 in RC on the older tests, but in the 60s and 70s, I'm trending towards -4 or -5. I'm sort of depending on ace-…

I jot down a sentence or two after each paragraph just stating the main idea/purpose of the paragraph. Aside from that I don't take any other notes. I implore you to experiment and try different techniques with RC to find out what works for you. If …

Games have always been my weakest section. I felt like they would never click for me and I basically accepted the fact I would only get through 2 or 3 games at most. I just figured I would get perfect scores on LR and RC to make up for it. What eve…

@september said: Foods? Exercise? What? Yup, healthy diet, plenty of exercise, and enough sleep. Aside from that I think @"vanessa fisher" hit the nail on the head when she said that stamina also builds over time. I feel like cultivating di…

@pcainti said: I've gotten to the point where I'm just drilling and taking PrepTests now. Ambitiously I've tried to do 1 per day, but I've quickly realized this has diminishing returns. After the 3rd or 4th consecutive day of taking PrepTests,…

@mel_emm8 said: I know this is usually said to be a huge no-no, but in my studies (poli sci and sociology student) i skim read all the time and find it super helpful to save time. When it comes to RC, I find I struggle the most with the w…

@ryansinay said: I think my biggest issue is not having a plan going into the section. I either feel like I'm rushing through the passage and not understanding everything that I am reading which then causes me to spend too much time on the que…

@"marvin.dike" said: @"Alex Divine" man you were right. I realized i was over notating and my slower speed of reading forced the flow of my understanding to be incoherent at times. Reading a little faster actually helps me for some reason. I s…

@cpineda813 said: any unconventional games in the CC? Im curious to see what they look like as I have not come across any in my PTS. Yup -- I think there's a miscellaneous games section of problem sets. And some of the earlier PTs you'll run…

@ryansinay said: I just completed PT60. I finished with a 160 and 165 on the BR. Reading comp is by far my biggest weakness. I usually average 7-11 wrong on RC. I've spent the last month focusing on LG and improved a lot averaging 2-4 wrong bu…
