You should highlight the main ideas and cross out any repeating sentences and things that don’t need to be there. And then rewrite it…this way you’ll come across sentences you might not really need or shorten some of them, and I’m sure you’ll come across repetitives you can take out. Good luck!

It would work out if you summarized about 6 sentences at a time into just one. It would be hard to do but if you keep it simple and only focus on the important parts you should be able to pull it off

You need to cut out ANYTHING that doesn’t need to be there. If the summary is still clear without it then leave it out. Some teachers won’t let you use compound words, but if you can then do so. This will make space for more words.

I’d just touch on the main ideas of whatever you read while still giving enough details. Good luck.
