Hi all,
As I go through my preparation for the MCAT CARS section, I am scoring below the median 125. Clearly, something is not working out correctly, and I am in need of advice in how to approach this section. Am currently taking the Kaplan course (in person); I have read their book about the section and I try to implement their techniques while tackling the passage. For what it's worth, I have only done two independent full-length sections (90 minutes each) and a full-length 7 hour exam. My scores for the three times were 122, 125, and 123 (todays). Obviously, I can't expect too much from an internet forum on a problem that is highly individualistic in nature. Do I simply just need to practice more? Should I take a few sections in a relaxed manner without time constraints? Each time, I am finishing with about 7 minutes to spare, so I feel like I am nervously rushing through the passages without getting the finer detail points.
Sorry for the long post, I am just looking for tips on how to tackle what is the most difficult section for me.
