Hey Gingerale,
Others can feel free to chime in here. But it depends on how much time you are spending highlighting. I tell my students who are still a few months out from the test, that going 19/20 and guessing on the last 5 questions in LR is better than going 19/25 and rushing too much because you can always get faster as you continue your studies. You'll go 1/5 guessing and end up with a 20/25.I say this with the caveat that you want to be getting to all of your LR questions by test day.
So I would say use the highlighter if it helps you. I like to use a computer mouse instead of the trackpad on my laptop and this might help you with the highlighter tool. I also take a fair amount of notes in LR on my scratch piece of paper especially for conditional reasoning problems or just stimuluses that are giving me a hard time. I probably take notes on 5-7 out of the 25 questions in LR.
So basically my advice is do whatever will help you get questions right for now. As you get about a month out from your test date, start worrying seriously about speed and adjust from there.
Hope this helps.
Best,
Ryan
