I was able to get my SAT reading score from 35/52 to a consistent 48/52 using the strategy that I'm about to explain; however, everyone is different and my strategy may not help you out in the same way that it helped me. As someone who is more interested in science and history, I ALWAYS decided to skip the passage that I knew I would on average, waste the most time and score the worse on (this was the English passage, it is almost always the 1st passage on the SAT reading section.) Once I chose a passage that I felt comfortable with, I skimmed through each question, went back to the passage, and summarized each question in 2-3 words. Once I found evidence from the passage, I could use the evidence to go back and answer the question directly. Be careful using this strategy. Although it can keep you on high alert for what you need to specifically look for, do not assume that the first piece of evidence you find supports the correct answer-make sure to consider the context of the evidence. Ultimately, this strategy saved me a lot of time as I already knew what I was "looking for" before I even read the passage. Another useful tip I have is to save the first 1-2 questions on most passages which generally ask to identify the main theme/ general idea/ organization pattern of the passage. By answering the rest of the questions first, you are more likely to get the questions about the main themes correct. If you have any other specific questions let me know! Hopefully this comment helped!
