These tend to be my weak point. I do pretty well on the Law passages...but almost all of the Art passages kill me!! Any tips?? Should I start reading art passages in magazines, maybe to better familiar myself with the terminology?

I doubt that not knowing artsy terminology is what's causing your troubles. I don't know anything about art and I know less about science and I do fine on each of those, generally.
I'd probably guess that your problems are more likely focus oriented. Is it possible that your focus drops when you hit the art passages as compared to when you're
reading the law ones?

Possibly. But even when I focus on them individually, I bomb them... I think the Art passages are extremely arbitrary......I usually end up with two answer choices, and pick the wrong one....

Maybe you're having trouble with a specific question type? IE inference?
