How often should you skip, and how should you be deciding which questions to come back to later? What do you do when you don't understand a stimulus, or find yourself evenly torn between two attractive answers?

Taking a few moments to 'pre-phrase' a potential ideal answer choice between reading the stimulus and the ACs is a powerful LR technique. If you spot a missing bridge between the premises and conclusion before getting mired in the answer choices, there's a good chance you'll be able to pinpoint the correct answer in a fraction of the time it would otherwise have taken! This class provides a primer on what to look for when pre-phrasing, and how to capitalize on a solid pre-phrase.
