I am a little bit confused. My advisor told me that there are 100 questions in the RC section and I get 60 minutes to answer those. However, the practice tests on KBB says that there are 50 questions to be answered in 50 minutes. Which one is true? 😕

Also this seems to be my weakest section. English is not my native language and I am generally a slow reader.😳 I didn't even get to finish the 50 questions when I was doing the RC practice on KBB. 😱

Do you guys have any suggestions which study materials are the best for that section?

your "advisor" is only so by name. There are only 50 questions inbetween the 3 passages. and 60 minutes to complete the whole thing

Great. I would kill myself if there were 100.

I have read a lot of people talking about piano passages. What exactly is that?😕
 
the piano passage is this fictional monster IMO that SDN has made.

the passage from what I have heard contains how a piano is constructed and is very dense and dry and the questions reportedly are more tone/inference than factually based ones.

Because its on a piano and not on science some are thrown off by it. They blank out or go OMG WTF is this and screw up on reading and so they got "piano'd"

Just realize that it is reading comprehension, not science reading comprehension. Everything is fair game. They can easily throw at you a supreme court opinion that's extremely legalese.

You should just come up with a strategy that works for you and practice it.

I think sfokn scored 28 or 29 on RC, with the piano passage and english is his/her second language.
