Breaking down the RC

Hi All,

I have read few articles to begin with my preparation on RC. I need some direction to pace myself up.
I am due my exam in a month.

My observations on my RC Performance are as below ((as per MGMAT Approach)):
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. As i start reading a small passage (200 words) i am taking approximately 30-40 sec more than the expected 2 mins.
The same holds good when i am doing the Longer ones with 400 words. I end up taking additional 30-40 secs.

From the articles mentioned what i have seen is that i just need to skim through the paragraphs reading superficially, meaning not getting to the detail but making sure to read the main points.

What i have realized is that this time lapse might be because i am reading through few lines and not skimming through.

My Query:
----------
1.) Could you please help me create a direction as to how to improve on timing.(does it just come with practice?)

2.) Also after we skim through and do the "Know where"(meaning identifying what information is available in which place/para) and form a basic idea about the passage, on each question what is the permissible time to be spent.

3.) Primarily i would request you to help me with permissable timing that one can spend on RC, (please specify for both small and huge passages). How much do i spend on passage reading and how much do i spend on each question.

4.) Can a doubtful OG 12th edition RC problem be posted for discussion?

TIA

Warm Regards,
MS
