Reading Comprehension

Well,
I have realized that,one mistake lots of people make is they dont make a plan how will they attack certain kind of question in GMAT(even me).They treat each question as new question(just another) and tackle as it comes where as lots of people say question and answers of GMAT RC most of time follow as specific pattern.

So we read lots of articles from different places,read books ,collect information from them but keep all the infomation as fragements as use it sometime only.Soon,we get overloaded by the rules(may be remembering) and details and we forget or we are made to forget about our core job i.e answeing RC questions correctly.So i feel like we have to have our own strategy for attacking it(when and how will i approach,how will i filter answes and so on).

Currently i have found two approaches from different books.I am refining it(identifying good and bad from each approach)
I am planning to attack RC using Manhattan and Kaplan approach.(I am trying to find common ground)
Develop separate strategy for short and long.
Eliminate using wrong answer categories(Out of scope,opposite,one word wrong,True but not relevant,...)
(I will write my detail strategy once it is well formed.)

So i am curious to know how do you tackle the RC questions.
Any kind strategy that you use.

May be way of choosing answers,saving time,reading,specific action flow...

Some people read skipping,some books suggest to prephrase first,sometimes read first question first.
Write how details and so on.

How do you do it.

May be it will be helpful for many people like me.

thanks
