<p>Hey... I recently took two practice test, and uniamously, my critical reading score has been pretty bad (630). I got all of the sentence compeltions correct, but I got 20ish passage questions wrong. Does anyone have any advice/techniques on how to improve paragraph-responce questions...</p>
<p>Ahh.. I also have problems with that, so I'm interested in what others have to say about it. Also, does anyone have any suggestions as to do for "inferring" questions? I can't think of an example off the top of my head right now, but they're common questions for short passages. Thanks!!</p>
<p>You're saying your 630 is bad? I recently got a 350 on a practice test. Luckily it was only PRACTICE!!! All I can say is READE READ READ and learn more VOCAB.</p>
<p>don't listen to the b.s. about skimming/reading the questions before the passage. Read the passage...take your time with it. Understand it. At first you may run out of time, but I promise if you practice your reading your speed will pick up. Get in the habit of reading the passage though... it will put you in a <em>much</em> better position to attack the questions... especially those notorious inferences that KRabble mentioned</p>
<p>While your reading take notes on the side of each paragraph, it'll help you save time for harder questions, and easier to find answers.</p>
<p>Twinki, what type of notes do you mean? I'm afraid that might just sidetrack me even more, and time is a factor for me :(</p>
