I have one suggestion for it, try using the time allotment method, it's really helpful. What I would do is, I had fit in my mind that a LR set has to be solved in 10 mins max if it seems mid, 5 mins if it seems easy and 13 mins if it seems hard and also had this fit in my mind that if I can't get a hint towards the solution (like totally clueless what to do or confused with too many constraints) within the 5 mins of taking that question in hand, then I would either leave it in an instant because why to waste another 10 mins for something I will get 10 marks for max, while I can use that 10 mins to maybe solve for 20 marks. What it does is, with practice I got used to that timeline and knowing when to leave the question. I panicked too when I wasted 5 mins but it's totally fine when you see the results.
Then I started with finding the thing which was in the most points of that set, for example if I see that sheriff is written on 3 points of a 5 points LRDI set, I would start with it as solving it would lead to the solution way more faster, like this you have to find your way (I developed this with practice you might need some external help) through these LRDI sets. And making a table makes it easier and some sort of organised so that you know clearly what you did so making it does no harm but it takes time to draw lines 😭
