Hello GMATNinja aka Bossman Charles: I am currently stuck at 70% accuracy with LSAT RC (Did over 300 questions), that too untimed, with timing I end up around 60%. I usually do a full-set in one go to test my endurance.

I am reading National Geographic, WSJ, The Economist (2- articles/day), as I read those I am comprehending and doing recall exercise at the end of couple paragraphs as they run 3-4 times than a regular passage. I also recall all articles and passage I read the very next day to improve recall function of my brain (if there's such things ....)

I have watched lots of RC videos to fix any technique and did few trail and error. This is what my approach is now:

1. Focused reading that is interactive
2. Comprehend each sentence and paragraph, summarize the paragraph at the end
3. Summarize the passage once read in my head
4. Try to do the general global questions without looking back to the text, sometimes do go back
5. I Go back to the passage for reference questions
6. Always use POE

I wonder if there's any book you can recommend to understand or dig further for each question type. My accuracy is really low for "Main point/Purpose" question, like around 50%, Inference about 70%

I already watched Khan Academy LSAT Videos and theories for each question types as well, 7Sage etc, I also read Superprep I's RC 12 pager which talks through about various question type, next in my reading list is Mike Kim's LSAT trainer for RC section only.

Your help is appreciated.
