Hello everyone,
I have a big problem with RC issues. Actually, I'm reading and answering the question at least 2x slower than stipulated, for example, passages with more than 350 words + 4 questions that I should answer in 7-8 min, but I answer at least in 14 minutes. I'm using the following strategy: I read the passage patiently and make a short summary (my real problem) so I do not go back to the passage later, but I'll be right back.
PS: I'm using the GMAT Prepnow strategy.
Do you have another strategies, someone of you are foreign and have a different strategy to help me?
Thank you in advance.
Best,
Pedro

Hi Pedro,
I went through the issue you are facing.
I use the same method as suggested by GMAT PrepNow.
However, it has been advised to skim the details as it will be an additional burden.
If the questions are details oriented, you can always find them in the passage.
Hope this late reply helps
