<p>I’ve learned many startgies to help me on the critical reading section. I’m still trying to figure out my reading pace for the passages. When I just skim the passage I have a vague idea of what its about. But when I just start with the lined questions first I might find some of them challenging and I’ll skip it. This creates a problem because I can’t get a hold of the passage until I read the lined question but if I skip them then im not reading enough of the passage to understand it. I usually find the general main idea type questions easier… HELP!</p>
<p>what do you mean by skimming the passage?
If you are doing great on main idea questions that actually means you have a good gauge on the passage. </p>
<p>For the specific line questions all you need to do is refer to the line and re-read part of it; for some hard qs, try to eliminate some categorically wrong answers.</p>
