For anyone who has trouble with RC, I would recommend taking the advice of reading The Economist. I recently got an office job which requires a ton of reading + reading The Economist and my RC score has improved drastically. I hadn't taken a RC section in a while and I was expecting to be rusty but i actually got a near perfect score, as opposed to -5 to-8. While I was reading the passages I was thinking about how much easier and less dense they were compared to The Economist. Anyways, read The Economist, and just more in general, it will really help!

tl;dr- Read The Economist for RC!

Now that I think of it I probably should have posted this in the LSAT forum. Well, as Rick Perry once said, "oops"

That's nothing.

I once read five sentences from Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit and cut my RC mistakes by 70% the very next day.

If they used a passage from Being and Time the curve would be -15.
