1. Reading Comprehension
...... After practicing quite a few RCs from numerous sources, I have been able to improve a lot in this. But still I am facing issues with time.
Once I understand the passage properly, I can answer quite accurately..... but when I skim through noting only the key points, I tend to answer incorrectly.
2. Multi Source Reasoning
..... I have written a few practice CATs, and invariably the IR section starts with a multi source reasoning problem, & on every occasion I tend to take quite some time to answer the 3 questions that follows (though correctly)
As a result, I have not been able to complete this section in any attempt
Is there a particular strategy I should follow for this, as I have noticed there are also several other type of questions in IR that can be solved fairly quickly...& I wouldn't want to miss out on those.
GMAT within 30 days....please help

Following would be my advice on your two issues:
- If reading the passage properly and then answering works best for you, use that. Try to increase your speed while reading without hurting your comprehension.
- Other than the obvious advice of practicing more MSR questions, I would suggest you to start with a specific time allotment. In one practice test, skip the MSR questions (guess blindly) and complete all the rest. See how much time you have leftover. Approximately, that is the time you can allot to MSR. In the actual test, if you see that you will be exceeding that time, guess and move on.
