Try to grasp the main idea, tone, purpose and structure of the passage. Look for keywords, transitions, topic sentences and conclusions that can help you identify the main points and arguments of the author.<\/li><li>Read the questions before reading the passage again. This will help you focus on the relevant information and eliminate unnecessary details. Look for clues in the questions that can guide you to the correct answer. For example, if the question asks for a synonym, antonym, inference or assumption, you can narrow down your choices accordingly.<\/li><li>Eliminate wrong options by using logic and elimination techniques. Look for options that are too extreme, too vague, too specific or irrelevant to the passage. Also, avoid options that contradict or distort the information given in the passage.<\/li><li>Use your prior knowledge and common sense to answer questions that require inference or assumption. However, do not rely on your personal opinion or bias to answer questions that are based on facts or evidence from the passage.<\/li><li>Manage your time wisely and do not spend too much time on one question or passage. If you are stuck on a difficult question, skip it and move on to the next one. You can always come back to it later if you have time.<\/li><li>Practice reading comprehension questions from previous AFCAT papers or mock tests. This will help you familiarize yourself with the types of passages and questions asked in the AFCAT exam. It will also improve your speed, accuracy and confidence.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/afcat\/?ref=8635\"><strong>Take Mock Tests of AFCAT &amp; Improve your Performance by 10x<\/strong><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/blog\/afcat\/50-most-asked-english-grammar-rules-for-afcat\/\">50 Most Asked English Grammar Rules for AFCAT<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reading comprehension is an important skill that can help you score well in the AFCAT exam as well as in your career as an Air Force officer.
