|

Hi, all
Just got a definitive answer from GMAC to the question: what happens if I've selected an answer but have not yet had time to confirm when time runs out?
If you have selected an answer bubble and time runs out before you can submit the answer (clicking either next or confirm), the test will still accept that answer. It will not be recorded as a missed question.
So if you're running low on time on your last question, pick something right away so that, if you run out of time while still working on the question, you have a guess, at the least! _________________ Stacey Koprince

Ya know, I cant remember which one now but i know that for one essay i didnt click the next button and i still got a 6.
Man I shudder to think what would have happened if they didnt do that! |
Wow--good to know this rule applies for the AWAs as well.  _________________ Eric
