In this Jack Westin CARS Reading Skills Workshop, Jack and Molly tackle a lyrical passage pulled from Lewis’s fantasy classic and show you how to keep your critical-reasoning compass steady when the prose turns mythical. Watch them read in real time, map each paragraph’s purpose, and convert rich imagery into clear MCAT takeaways.
In this session you’ll learn how to
- Separate story from stance – spot the author’s underlying argument beneath allegory and nostalgia.
- Decode symbolism quickly – translate lions, wardrobes, and eternal winters into testable main ideas.
- Control pacing – keep long descriptive sentences from eating up precious minutes.
- Anticipate question traps – apply “tone vs. fact” and “extreme language” filters before answer choices appear.
