Answer 1

Do you mean 40/50 correct or 40% ?? If its 40/50, I'm doing just like you. I usually get about 10 mistakes on reading. My logic is pretty good but everything else in that section is terrible. Try doing some more scrambled paragraphs. Practice all the time. Also, what people say is if you do VERY good on one section and OK on the other section, its still converted to an excellent score (better than doing OK on both sections). Hope I helped.
