Hi mrgoglioso,

What materials have you been using so far (books, courses, online materials, etc.) during your studies? And are you just interested in RC or are you looking for a complete set of materials?

I can recommend several things for you on Reading Comp:

First let me say that the Veritas Prep FREE Question Bank has lots of great reading comp passages for you to try. The link is https://www.veritasprep.com/gmat-question-bank/

Next, if you are looking for retired official GMAT passages you can use the Official Guide to the GMAT 13th edition or the Verbal Review 2nd edition. Or you can download the free GMATPrep software and the add-on the "Prep Pack 1."

If you are looking for strategy here is an article on proper reading comp strategy: https://www.beatthegmat.com/mba/2012/08/ ... prehension
