ACT READING OCTOBER 2016… I FEEL RUSHED

Have you found the strategy that worked for you? What were you making before? I tried many strategies to get out of the low 20s zone on the reading section, but ended up were i began (reading the whole passage and answering questions afterwards). I started to make high 20s and 30-31 occasionally because of practice, but my main issue is time bc I think that it affects my accuracy (I tend to take 9-10m per passage and 6-7m on dual passage ones which end up 35-36m). What should i do? I am conviced that I have potential to make 30s on the act and i am taking it this october. I need advices (THX in advance)
btw my approach, like i said, is reading the whole passage while underlining a lot and answer questions afterwards. I feel like i am taking in too much information that isn’t needed bc i also refer back to the passage for some questions, leading to 9-10m/passage. TIME IS REALLY AFFECTING MY ACCURACY
