Reading comprehensions

Reading comprehensions are easy for those who have reading habits or who love reading whatever comes there way and difficult for those who are not that much into reading. But because it is part of your CLAT exam you need to be exceptionally good in it. So, in this article I am going to discuss that how you should handle Reading comprehension and score good marks in it. Reading comprehension is of around 7 to 8 marks which mean a lot in CLAT Exam. Firstly, you need to have good speed in attempting RC’s but how to increase your speed is what is the actual question? It’s not that there is a tonic that you consume and your speed increases in reading comprehension. For increasing your speed you have to practice as some great scholar said that practice makes a man perfect. So, if you want to be a perfectionist in RC’s you need to practice a lot. The formula for increasing speed is that you take up at least five RC’s in a go that is back to back and attempt all of them and off course check them yourself. This is really a great formula to increase your speed This will not only increase your speed but also you yourself would be able to find different ways to attempt RC’s and also when you will attempt so many RC’s everyday you will get to know that how different type of RC’s are to be attempted. The different ways that I am going to discuss are all that are helpful in attempting RC’s but different aspirants have different choices. You should try all the methods and then find with which one you are comfortable.

Methood-1
Firstly, check all the questions which have been asked from the RC it would be good if you read the questions thoroughly or skim the questions and then read the RC properly and keep underlining the parts which you think that are answers to the questions which you had thoroughly read. This is one of the best ways to attempt a RC. The beauty of solving a RC by this method is that there is no wastage of time because the part which doesn’t has a answer to the questions is skipped out easily which leads to saving of time and as I always say that CLAT is much about time management . So, where ever your time can be saved save it.
Method- 2
Another way is that you skim the passage first and then read the questions and try finding the answers or it is that you read the comprehension thoroughly and then you answer the questions.
You can choose any of the above methods. The most important part is that you practice that method in your mocks so that you don’t have any problem in applying that method in the exam. The next thing that I would like to discuss is the level of RC’s in CLAT Goshhhh… don’t ever think that it would be similar to what you get in your school exams it is much above that and that is why I am asking you to practice as many RC’s as you can because if you practice the high level of RC’s then only you would able to score well in RC’s. Now from where to get the RC’s which you can practice every day at least for a month together yes I am talking about the sources from where you can get RC’s . You can get any book which is of CAT level and which has a lot of RC’s. Now why I am saying CAT level is because if you practice the CAT level RC’s you can attempt any RC which comes your way but the level of CLAT is a bit lower than the CAT Exam. You can go for Tata McGraw hill, Pearson’s and various other books. Please take up a book which has answers and it would be great if they also provide with explanations. It is my humble request please don’t practice RC’s from your school level books. .I hope my articles are helping you out if you have any queries you can always leave your queries below.
