My Advice is:

Use the strategies I have discussed to make your reading for information more effective.

It IS a good idea to look at the questions for each passage before you start reading, but don’t spend too long on this. Just notice any key words, terms or names and important dates or numbers.

Then read the passage…..

Don’t read for detail. – Read to gain an overall understanding of the organisation of the text and how it develops and arrangement of ideas.

Next go to the first Question.  Read the question, identify the task and consider the information you are looking for.

Skim read the passage to locate the area you are likely to find the information you need (remember that some questions follow the order of the passage) and then scan, before reading in detail and checking your answer.

Then do the same for the remain questions

At the end, when you check your answers, think carefully why you got some answers wrong and why some sections were challenging. 

Was it your understanding of the text or the reading strategy you followed?
