The SEVEN things that you should be careful NOT to do while solving RCs:
1. Do NOT try to retain every detail or information given in the passage.
2. Do NOT re-read or read backwards( regressive reading) even if you don't understand a particular part. Go with the flow.
3. Do NOT try to focus on individual words, instead read in a group of words to focus on the ideas.
4. Do NOT be over-engaging or over-enthusiastic about the passage even it is about a topic of your interest.
5. Do NOT read the questions first and try to pick up answers for the problems, but a glance may be done to grab the keywords.
6. Do NOT read too fast or too slow.
7. Do NOT rely on subjective knowledge to answer the questions. Choose the options solely based on the information given in the passage.
