i will see for others. too
This could be a biased result, specially you've been practicing on reading comprehension for a long time before you devised this strategy. Nevertheless, you'll be ok

As I've said privately to you before, there is no holy grail with RCs unfortunately, but if you found a method that works for you, thats great and stick with it.

I'm off to get ready for my exam

Hi Sham,

I like your concept over all, it is very interesting that you're applying philosophy to reading comprehension.

I would say instead of building your troughs and crests for each sentence, try to do it on a larger scale. try to make a map of the reading comprehension.

My suggestion is have a timer and set a target time of two mins or 1 and half mins. Now, see how many points you can note down from the passage. Just practise this alone without any questions. This improves your reading ability.

Once you are able to take more points in that time move on to the question part. I'm practising this way and I feel I'm getting better in atleast reducing my time spent on passages.

GRE - every second does matter!!
