As I have been preparing for my upcoming exam in December for the last 3 months, I believe that I have some valuable tips for RCs. Here are my strategies to tackle RC questions -
1) Categorize the type of questions you will see into 4 main types- main idea question, supporting idea questions, inference questions and logical structure questions As soon as you read a question, categorize it. This increases your chances of getting it right because you know HOW to answer it. It will also save you time. (refer to OG answers)
2) MAKE USE OF THE LINE REFERENCES - this is a big bonus that the testakers give you. Especially for supporting idea questions, when you refer back to the questions, remmber about the line number.
3) Read the first question first (benifits have been suggested by earlier participants)
4) Be passionate about reading the passages! (benefits also mentioned earlier)

I always find myself with 10-15 mins extra when doing the verbal section. So what I started doing was to read the passages twice. That made better use of my time at it really helped when answering the questions 
But I guess if you usually end with only 2-5 mins in the verbal part, this strategy doesn't work.

This past Sunday I took my first CAT test, whereas earlier I've been studying paper and pencil. I noticed specifically with the verbal section, I took little to no notes. Reading through some of the posts, what is the best way to take notes on the RC section?
Thank you.
Thank you.
