So far My scores have been fluctuating between a 6,7, and 8. My main problem is that it's hard for me to grasp the main ideas in philosophical passages. I can do fairly well in natural sciences passages that deal since its easier for me to find the main ideas and important details.
My strategy right now is to read at
A good pace and visualize the information as much as I can, while thinking what each paragraph meant. I just barely utilized this strategy for a
few days so far but my timing is taking a toll due to clearly not getting the main ideas. When I think about the main ideas as I read, it kills my time. I try to read at a good pace and find the main ideas, but when I tackle the questions that deal with main ideas I get stuck because the questions or answers are either confusing due to me not understanding the main ideas....
What are your guys strategies for finding and understanding the main ideas?
