Hi,
I've been doing pretty well in my official practice test. I am really curious about certain timing strategies.
For Quant, I've noticed that I seem to score much better (Q47 vs Q41) when I slow down and take my sweet time with each question. Of course, I dont finish the last 10 questions and usually get one random one right so I just guess the last 10 or so. In the end I get about 14-15 wrong overall and still get my Q47. Now, I would like to know, is this a good strategy or should I get some random ones wrong throughout the test and give myself more time at the end? I'm very confused about this. Please let me know.
For Verbal, I have 2 questions:
1. I sometimes manage to finish everything and other times I am amissing like 5 questions at the end. I would like to know if its better to miss random questions towards the end to give yourself more time and not guess in all of the last ones or if its better to do your best all along and just guess on the last few ones if you run out of time. Heard lots of different theories on this one so really would like a conclusive answer. By the way, I am getting between 39 and 41 in Verbal.
2. I have also considered just skipping the last RC and spending my time on SC and CR which I am generally quicker at and have decent accuracy. But also heard that skipping RC might drop your score dramatically. What should I do here?
Thanks for your feedback!!
