English just takes practice.

Reading required speed reading. Keep in mind you only need to remember that content for a few minutes. Don’t read to slow. This really just takes practice. One method is to physically use a pencil. Move the pencil faster than you read so that your eyes have to follow it. I didn’t do this. I just practiced. Over 17 practice tests, I improved from taking 4-5 minutes per passage to sprinting through at 1.5-2 minutes per passage. My scores are 33-35 on reading.

Science can be improved with little extra work. There are 7 passages. 3 with 5 questions, 3 with 6 questions, and 1 with 7 questions. This is important. 5 questioners don’t require you to read the passage; they refer to 95% graphs. Thus, by counting the questions you can save up to 6-9 minutes on these passages alone. Sixers require only graphs roughly 70-95% of the time. I generally do not read the passage unless the questions calls for it. Here you can save another 5 minutes. Seveners MUST be read. They are a reading section based on science. All seven questions will rely on knowledge from the passage. Now, one more thing. Do the science out of order. 5ers first, then 6ers and lastly the 7er. This saves time and improves your score by allowing you to relax more as the difficulty increases.

And as a general tip. Bring a watch!!! Know where you need to be at very point in the test! I had this down to exact times and I know exactly when to slow down or speed up.
