reading comprehension 4 Weeks, 1 Day ago Karma: 0  
No matter how long i read and study the reading comp (RC), i just cant score better than 50% on this section. I actively read the paragraphs, but the subject matter in this section is often so bizarre that its hard to follow. I need so advice to that i can break down the paragraphs quick and identify the correct answers better.

Often times, RC doesn't mean that you read the entire article. Rather, it means that you pay attention to the nuances of the paragraph and read the questions to look for too narrow and too broad of answer choices. For example, if an answer choice states that "every" "must" "shall" are usually incorrect. Along the same lines, "sometimes" is usually incorrect.

Read one paragraph and write what the main point of the paragraph is. You should also be able to anticipate the next paragraph based on the previous paragraph. Practice with short paragraphs and one you master understanding short paragraphs, work up to longer paragraphs, and then entire passages. Thats teh best way to excel at reading comprehension. Practice is small, and work your way up to larger ones.
