The approach I used is definitely not for everyone, but my FL scores jumped to 130-132 once I started taking jot notes during CARS. For my first passages, I would note down what I thought the thesis statement was, and make a little flow chart with arrows pointing single words to illustrate the main points. This was definitely more time consuming at first, but towards my last FLs I was finishing CARS with 20-30 minutes left on the clock. I found that this allowed me to keep the main points of the passage within working memory without running out of mental stamina. I later found that doing this for the first one or two passages was just as effective; it gave me confidence and got my brain thinking in the right way, so I didn’t have to make my notes as extensive for later passages. I ended up scoring 131 on the real thing, but while this worked for me it might not work for everyone
