Need Help With Verbal Reasoning and Reading Compreshension

(1/2) > >>

Hey AN,
So I am one of the people who is sitting the MHS entrance exam on June 14 (5 days to go !).
I posting this because I need help with my verbal and reading comprehension. I don't know why but even after studying hours nothing has improved. The exam is coming close and i'm stressing because even after finishing books about these two subjects I still fail tests (JAC, online tests etc.). By fail I mean get 50-60%. These are my questions: How should I approach reading comprehension ? Should I read easier texts first ? Should I skim or speed read ? (even though I don't really know how to speed read). Should I read the questions first ? Even if you're not sure please tell me how you approach and what technique you use. Also what exactly is speed reading? For verbal I just need general advice not exactly sure what  :P. Im confident with everything else and im stressing cause if I dont make a change im going to get averages in both of these topics which means I wont get in  :(.

Hey! I'm in the same boat as you. My maths and essays are strong, but my verbal and comprehension aren't so strong. I get around 50-60% on the JAC tests. So I would also appreciate any advice!
