Hi,
I am really bad with RC. Which is affecting my entire verbal. Due to timing issues, or throwing off the algo due to bad accuracy.
I have a few questions -
1) How much can one improve in RC in 2 months? (fundamental reading skills arent great but I want to work on them as much as I can in 2 months)
2) LSAT seems to be too hard. The passages are very dense I feel.
Are they suitable to practice for GMAT RC?
GMATNinja What your view? Someone with bad skills with RC should do LSAT? Asking this as the difficulty is way higher. I need to first ace medium questions for the exam to even give me hard questions.

No, they are not, goalISB55. They test a different kind of reading (consider that lawyers and business executives read different types of material and are expected to digest them at different levels).

If you've run out of Official RC questions from the OG, consider checking out the Online only question banks. Regularly reading similar articles and working on a reading method that promotes absorption may also be helpful. Getting a sense of how INFERENCE questions work on GMAT RC and perhaps working with a study buddy with strong RC skills may also boost your performance.
