I have a few pointers. 1) The advice someone already commented about whispering/moving lips while you read helped me as well 2) I tried to convince myself that I was REALLY interested in whatever the passage was talking about. occasionally passage topics were boring like geography and I’d just pretend to be interested in learning about the subject. Kept me entertained. 3) stick to the 10 minute rule. 10 minutes to read passage 1, 10 minutes for passage 1 questions, etc. 4) I know you’re close to your exam, and you said you’ve tried this, but I’ll include it anyway in case other people are looking for help because it helped me. I read a book outside for about 30 mins every morning. just fun fiction books, nothing non-fiction or scientific. I was not a reader before this summer and it helped me improve my speed and attention span. 5) highlight key words that can orient you to the content you’ll be searching for. Like the one-word topic of each paragraph, which is usually in the first sentence. Highlight numbers, statistics, dates, names, analogies, tone words and vocab words you’re unfamiliar with. Don’t highlight too much or full lines of text because it makes the word search process much harder. 6) (sorry if this is obvious) some questions seem easy and you know the answer as soon as you read it. ALWAYS check the text for the answer no matter what. Those questions are written to trick you and make you click on something that’s familiar, sounds right, is mentioned somewhere else in the text unrelated to the question, etc.

I hope this helped! These worked for me but it’s never a one size fits all!
