I would practice it on the GMAT Prep - that's the only way to know.
I would also look through this thread: un-scientific-analysis-of-gmatprep-64970.html

In our experience, you really shouldn't be changing your reading strategy depending on whether the passage is long or short.

Some people actually get more questions wrong on the short passage than the long passage even though they read more of it. This does not mean they actually comprehended it better.

Since this is an exam on reading comprehension, you're going to have to focus on a reading strategy that helps you comprehend, not just catch a glimpse here and there as to what the topic of the passage is - and not the critical perspective that the passage provides.
