What??? what exactly do you want??

English is my first language and i still didnt know what one question was asking, or half of the answers for that matter lol. I was averaging a 23 other than RC where i got killed and got an 18. It brought my grade down a full point. No matter what language is your first, we are all at a disadvantage when it comes to RC, because some people get easy passages while others get impossible ones. Luck of the draw is all it is.

Honestly, you can only figure out the tone by actively reading the whole thing. When you happen to land a tone typed passage, your main goal is to read and understand as opposed to looking for detail.

For those that got tone typed passages, how many of the 16 or 17 questions were tone based for each passage?

I had one passage that had like 6 of the abstract wierd type questions.
