do you guys really think that's good advice? don't read the passages? the PS passages are always short anyway. it doesn't take much time to read them. the ones that are longer are the ones you actually DO need to read for most of the questions. i took my first MCAT in april and there was this solar flare passage. these were content questions, too, not calculations. i don't know anything about solar flares. all the answers came from the long passage.
what do you think, Vihadas? i think i read somewhere that you read all the passages.
if you take enough practice tests, you should be able to get your time fixed to include the PS passages. i'm naturally the slowest test taker in the world. i trained myself 6 min/passage and almost always have at least 5 min left. i'd say 1/5 PS sections i mess up my timing on passage 1, so it throws me off and i only finish right on time. 4/5 times, tho, i have 5 mins to spare to review answers. considering i'm sooo naturally slow but still improved, i think anyone can.
come to think of it...i might only skim the PS passages. skimming is helpful because it shows where you everything is placed in the passage. when the reading starts to get a lil complicated, i just skip it. if a question asks about it, i at least know where the answer is.
