I had a habit of having my mind wander while reading a passage. I would finish reading a paragraph and then realize I had no idea what I just read. I practiced reading with my girlfriend's JAMA (Journal of the American Medical Association... I think that's what it stands for) magazines. Would sit down and read a paragraph, close the magazine, and then summarize what I just read in my head. I would keep doing that, and then work up to 2 paragraphs at a time, and then to 3, etc.
This method worked for me. It may not work for you. Everyone has their own way of doing the RC section. I consider my reading skills very average. I have a horrible vocabulary, and have a hard time understanding dense material. I found the passages very... doable.
Oh yeah, I scored a 21 on my real DAT. I hope this helps!
