For slower readers

Those who read really slow ever consider abandon one passage and use those extra time on another two passages? Ok, here is what I do for now:

Use like 1-2 mins to go over 3 passages and Qs very quickly and pick two you like or feel comfortable. Use ~45-50 mins to finish the two passages(you need to complete understand these two passages in order to get the Qs right). if you have time, scan through last passage for facts/detail Qs and answer them or just guess.

Well, if you can score at least 20-21 (out of 34) Qs correct for first two passages, you will get 18 on RCT. And guess what, you might get one or two right from last passage, and that might increase you final score(need total of 27 correct to get a 19).

I tried it on one RCT and managed to get a 19. maybe I'm just lucky.

Just a thought.😉

sounds good but going from one passage to another takes time you need to "click" all the answers for a pasaage to go to the next one. unless we have an option to go to the next one directly

Yeah, that is right. But you can scan through all the questions to get a feeling.

21 out of 50 is an 18? Lol... then i don't know how people are failing. I got 29 and 24 on my practice exams and that was 2 wrong and 5 wrong respectively, and the wrong answers were just stupid mistakes on my part. its more finding waldo than reading comprehension

Can be very risky under examination stress. Picking two passages that appear comfortable to you does not signify the questions associated are going to be the easier ones.

Kaplan says a 19 is 37 questions right, which is more reasonable. QR a 19 is a 27.
