Hi,
I took the GMAT Prep test yesterday and got a 44 on the quantitative section. However, I ended up with 18 incorrect answers. That was surprising. I ended up not having enough time to even read the last 5 questions so I guessed randomly.
I ran the clock on a couple of questions (somewhere between questions 8 and 15) in the middle and hence the lack of tiem at the end of the test. As far as guessing goes, would it have been better to have guessed on those questions in the middle, and left enough time to do the questions at the end? Or was it correct to have spent time on those two questions in the middle of the test (since they were probably at a higher difficulty level)? I'm doubtful because I've read that you lose less points for guessing at the end, but then you also lose a TON of points if you get consecutive questions wrong.
Thanks!
